Public bug reported:

Last night I installed the update qemu-kvm-1.2.0+noroms-0ubuntu2.12.10.3

Afterwards, I discovered that I could no longer use FUSE, and from
comparing time stamps, discovered that the permissions on my /dev/fuse
had been changed to:

crw------T 1 root root 10, 229 Mar  8 07:48 /dev/fuse

at precisely the time that this update was running its postinst script.
(/dev/fuse should have group fuse, not root, and group rw access.) The
culprit appears to be udevadm:

udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=misc --action=change

This may be related to bug #1103022.

The full list of devices which had their permissions changed then is:

crw-------  1 root root       10,  58 Mar  8 07:48 alarm
crw-------  1 root root       10,  59 Mar  8 07:48 ashmem

crw-------  1 root root       10,   1 Mar  8 07:48 psaux
crw-rw-r--+ 1 root root       10,  62 Mar  8 07:48 rfkill
crw-------  1 root root       10, 231 Mar  8 07:48 snapshot
crw-r-----  1 root root       10, 223 Mar  8 07:48 uinput
crw-------  1 root root       10,  53 Mar  8 07:48 vboxdrv
crw-------  1 root root       10,  52 Mar  8 07:48 vboxnetctl
crw-------  1 root root       10,  63 Mar  8 07:48 vga_arbiter

I can't see any other device that has incorrect permissions now, but I
can't tell for all of the above what the correct permissions are.
