Udev rules

[Theodoros Foradis]

Hello,

I am packaging some software which interacts with usb devices and
provides a set of udev rules, so that you don't need to run it as root.

How do they become usable by udev? I see that some packages place their
files under $prefix/lib/udev/rules.d. Should the user manually modify the
udev-service in his system configuration, or are they found and loaded?

Thanks in advance,
