[Bug 328057] [NEW] virtualbox's udev rule overwrite nut rule about group owner

[Skool182]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nut

In Intrepid and Jaunty, nut packages provides a rule for udev to allow the nut group to use UPS USB devices.
This rules has the ident number 52.

If you want to install virtualbox-2.1 (from the virtualbox website), the
package creates a rule to allow the vboxusers group to access all USB
devices, this rules has the ident number 60 and overwrites the nut
rules, and usbhid-ups driver don't want to start.

This problem is probably inexistant if you uses virtualbox-ose from the
ubuntu repository because the udev rules seems to have the ident number
50.

This rule is very important for nut usage, and seems to have no effects
to other programs, is it possible to specify an ident greater than 60
for this rule ?

Thanks
