The problem is the privilege system. On Gentoo and others /dev/bus/usb/*/* is
in the "usb" group. Adding an "usbmux" user and giving him access to the group
makes usbmuxd run with dropped privileges fine and looks "elegant".
On openSUSE, we have /dev/bus/usb/*/* owned by root:root. This makes it
problematic to create a user and I am not sure how the "distro conform"
solution should look like.
I would think we should patch the udev rule and set the respective device node
to "usbmux:usbmux" and also create the related user.
Thoughts?
