Can Ubuntu consider using "dv1394/0" rather than "dv1394-0" per the
convention attempting to be established at
http://www.linux1394.org/faq.php#udev ? That FAQ item has existed for some
time. Next kino version changes its default dv1394 device to /dev/dv1394/0
(currently using a legacy devfs name). With dv1394-0, new Kino users will
have a broken configuration out of the box. Now, if I change Kino to use
dv1394-0, then it will be broken by default for other distros.
