Packaging udev rules along with their binary

Packaging udev rules along with their binary

[LaFreniere, Joseph]

I am attempting to package brightnessctl [0].  The repository 
provides relevant udev rules in a file 90-brightnessctl.rules, and 
its makefile has allowances for optionally copying and chmoding 
those rules.

What is the recommended way to go about packaging this for Guix? 
Should I take an approach similar to android-udev-rules, and 
package the rules file separately "to be added as a rule to the 
@code{udev-service-type} in your @code{operating-system} 
configuration"?

It's already packaged in Guix since late March (commit
ab7f1eb97abd49676f8e98e35e861f9785f0c2b2).

It includes the udev rules file ion the package. I forget exactly what I
did to configure the udev rules, but I recall using one of the options
right out of the manual:

Enjoy!
