Description Matt Kinni 2011-05-12 02:06:59 UTC
Description of problem:
Installing sane creates /lib/udev/rules.d/65-libsane.rules,

but it needs to be in /etc/udev/rules.d/65-libsane.rules to make a difference.

It's impossible to use my scanner without this rule in the right place, and a simple ln -s is all I need to fix it.  But I think it should just go in the right place from the get go

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sane-backends-1.0.22-3.fc15.x86_64


How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install it
2.
3.

Comment 1 Harald Hoyer 2011-05-12 09:28:14 UTC
Why do think that? packages should put rules in /lib/udev/rules.d.
Admin rules go in /etc/udev/rules.d/.

If rules files in /etc/udev/rules.d/ have the same name, they will "overwrite" the rules file of /lib/udev/rules.d.
