Include udev rules in repository #386

Closed robin-nitrokey closed 5 months ago

robin-nitrokey commented 1 year ago

As libnitrokey is not a required dependency and also not updated for newer products, we should move the udev rules to this repository. This would also make life easier for package maintainers (see also https://github.com/Nitrokey/pynitrokey/issues/381).

Many ideas and proposals to be found in #366 and #197, using this issue to align on the steps forward

robin-nitrokey commented 5 months ago

We’ve decided to move the udev rules into a separate repository, https://github.com/Nitrokey/nitrokey-udev-rules, instead of adding them to pynitrokey directly so that they can be versioned, packaged, and installed independent of client applications like pynitrokey, nitrokey-app2, or others. I will update and close this issue once there is a first release of the new repository.

We’ve released v1.0.0 of the Nitrokey udev rules, so I’m closing this issue.

Packaged in Alpine Linux as https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/merge_requests/59861, thanks for the effort!

Thanks, that was fast! :) What happens if I try to install both libnitrokey and nitrokey-udev-rules?

PureTryOut commented 5 months ago

Currently they'll conflict, I still have to resolve that but I wanted to get this in now, there probably won't be a lot of people using both.

robin-nitrokey commented 5 months ago

The pro and storage subcommands still require libnitrokey. I agree that they are probably only used by a small share of users but it would be great if that would still work.
