Bug#698284: usb-modeswitch-data: ttyUSB* rule should have SYMLINK+= not SYMLINK=

[Didier 'OdyX' Raboud]

Hi Josua,

I have now uploaded your latest usb-modeswitch-data source package to Debian 
and stumbled upon this bug while housekeeping the remnant bugs lying around. 
:)

Apparently you forgot to include this change in the new rules file (also in 
the gen_rules.tcl) apparently; was that intentional?

Keep us posted, cheers,

OdyX

  Chould it be changed to SYMLINK+=%c ?

 Yes, this definitely should be changed. There is no disadvantage.
 
 I will do so in the next release, but that is not scheduled yet - so you
 might want to correct this prior to my update.

Darn - of course not ... That's what you get for waiting too long between 
releases.

I am about to issue annother bugfix release (20130610) for the data package.

Thanks and best regards,
Josh

Bug#698284: usb-modeswitch-data: ttyUSB* rule should have SYMLINK+= not SYMLINK=

[John Hedges]

Package: usb-modeswitch-data
Version: 20120815-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Symlinks created by local rules for ttyUSB devices are lost because of the 
following rule in 
/lib/udev/rules.d/40-usb_modeswitch.rules

KERNEL==ttyUSB*, ATTRS{bNumConfigurations}==*, PROGRAM=usb_modeswitch 
--symlink-name %p %s{idVendor} %s{idProduct} %E{PRODUCT}, SYMLINK=%c

Chould it be changed to SYMLINK+=%c ?

Cheers
John
