Getting a lot of warnings about this on recent udev upgrades. I tried
substituting in some of the rules files but might have caused problems. Fact
is that this was tested with the recent broken udev and problems were (also?)
from udev itself.

Should ATTR be simply substituted for SYSFS?

Should bugs be filed against the offending rules parents or will these changes
simply be systematically done in course?

If you are using Sid -- and I think you are, because I had the recent
udev breakage and I get the udev error messages you are talking about --
then don't do anything. Nothing is really wrong.

The error message is a warning: it only affects the 'hplip' package,
and a bug report has already been filed

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=559289

Once the hplip gets around to upgrading the files they drop into
/etc/udev/rules, all will be well again. In the meantime, the warning
is scarier than it looks.


HTH,

I had a few rules using the old syntax as well, so it pays off to look
closely what files udev complains about. I still have to test whether my
rules still work, though. :)

But there are a lot of messages that take a long time.
He complains about:
/etc/udev/rules.d/024_hpmud.rules
/etc/udev/rules.d/025_logitechmouse.rules
/etc/udev/rules.d/z60_libsane-extras.rules
/etc/udev/rules.d/z60_libsane.rules
/etc/udev/rules.d/024_hpmud.rules

Then the complaint is: SYSFS{}= will be removed in a future udev
version, please use ATTR{}= to match the event device, or ATTRS{}= to
match a parent device.

Again: Should ATTR be simply substituted for SYSFS?

I.e:
SYSFS{idVendor}=="03f0", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0101", MODE="0664",
GROUP="scanner", ENV{libsane_matched}="yes"

should read:
ATTR{idVendor}=="03f0", ATTR{idProduct}=="0101", MODE="0664",
GROUP="scanner", ENV{libsane_matched}="yes"

Most went away by upgrading libsane + removing kcontrol
