Dear Maintainer,

your package installs a file into /lib/udev/rules.d (a udev rule).
Apparently this location is hard-coded.

For the ongoing UsrMerge effort [1], /lib needs to become "empty", IOW no
package should install a file there. Instead, files should be installed
into /usr/lib.

Please change your package to install into /usr/lib/udev/rules.d at your
earliest convenience. Per the wiki, it is useful to first upload to
experimental and wait a few days for the dumat tool to evaluate the
change, and only then upload to unstable.

At a later point during the trixie cycle, I expect this bug will become
release-critical.

Thanks for considering,
Chris
