Recently an udev rules was not executed. After some investigations, it was a symlink to a user file with these permissions : -rw-r--r-- 1 user user

changing ownership to -rw-r--r-- 1 root root and reloading indev rules with udevadm control --reload solved the problem.

I understand that for security reasons it is better to have system files owned by root. Does that mean udev checks rules owners and rejects non-root rules? Is there another explanation?
