Description Ben Sagal 2010-12-14 12:22:10 UTC 
udev looks for rules in 2 locations /etc/udev/rules.d/ and /lib/udev/rules.d/.
system defined rules are supposed to be installed in /lib/udev/rules.d/ and not
in etc, however modemmanager installs the rules into /etc/udev/rules.d/.

this should be fixable by replacing the line (in the ebuild):
                --with-udev-base-dir=/etc/udev/
with:
                --with-udev-base-dir=/$(get_libdir)/udev/

modemmanager-0.5.2.0 installs them at proper location
