Version: 20131102+1
Severity: normal

Dear maintainer,

After quickly scanning the packages in the archive, it seems that an
udev rules file is using old ConsoleKit tags or executables (udev-acl
or ACL_MANAGE).

The rules file should be updated to use the "uaccess" tag instead as
the other method are deprecated and will not work with logind.

TAG+="udev-acl" -> TAG+="uaccess"

ENV{ACL_MANAGE}="1" -> TAG+="uaccess"

You can also look in /lib/udev/rules.d/70-uaccess.rules to see if an
ENV variable is matching the type of device and use this instead,
this would allow compatibility with the old and the new method.

ie. ENV{ID_MEDIA_PLAYER}="1"

Please also note that using the udev-acl executable directly is
discouraged.

Cheers,

Laurent Bigonville
