Bug Description
Binary package hint: bitpim
The /etc/default/bitpim file is supposed to allow one to configure the ownership of devices that bitpim handles. These are not being applied in my case and therefore bitpim cannot access the phone. I tracked the problem down to /lib/udev/bpudev. The following code snippet (lines 31-37) causes the problem.
# udev fires off a whole bunch of devices, most of which we don't need.
# By visual inspection, the one that we want has the same Kernel No and
# SYSFS{devnum}.
# XXX - this appears to fail for removals. :-/
if [ "$2" != "$3" ]; then
exit 2
fi
I changed /lib/udev/bpudev to log the arguments and it turns out that no device message has argument 2 and 3 the same. I will attach the log.
