Since some recent version of udev, /dev/raw1394 is not created anymore, there is /dev/raw/raw1394 instead. However, libraw1394 still looks for the /dev/raw1394 device.
I would like to have the symlink /dev/raw1394 created (and removed) by udev everytime raw1394 module is (un)loaded. However, once it comes to editing udev.rules files, I'm totally clueless.
Can anyone recommend a way how to add this functionality to udev.rules?
Maybe this should be even filed as a feature request and/or bug?

Don't edit udev.rules. Create a new file called for example my.udev.rules and put there this rule:
KERNEL=="raw1394", SYMLINK+="%k"Restart udev as root with /etc/start_udev or reboot.
I think you should file a bug report for libraw1394 (if it can be changed there) or a feature request for the symlink (if it can't be changed).

Thanks for help! Seems it's hardcoded in libraw1394, so I'm filling a report for udev (in 096, it works fine).
