Description Robert Schedel 2020-08-07 13:49:08 UTC

sys-fs/udev-245.5 was stabilized recently by bug 736088.

According to NEWS file, since udev 244 the delivered rule file "/lib/udev/rules.d/60-fido-id.rules" uses new helper executable "fido_id" to recognize FIDO security sticks in a generic way, instead of hardcoding ids of each stick. But unfortunately, this executable is not built/installed by current ebuild (=possible regression). Presumably this udev 244 upstream change was missed during stabilization update.

P.S. When adding "fido_id" entry into "multilib_src_compile" and "multilib_src_install", the helper exe is built+installed as expected.

Reproducible: Always

Comment 1 Robert Schedel 2020-08-07 14:06:17 UTC

For details to new "fido_id" helper see systemd/udev 244ff source code under "src/udev/fido_id": Basically, the new helper reads the USB HID descriptor to autodetect any FIDO devices in general way.
