All rules files are collectively sorted and processed in lexical order,
regardless of the directories in which they live. However, files with
- identical file names replace each other. Files in <filename>/etc</filename>
+ identical filenames replace each other. Files in <filename>/etc</filename>
have the highest priority, files in <filename>/run</filename> take precedence
over files with the same name in <filename>/lib</filename>. This can be
used to override a system-supplied rules file with a local file if needed;

<para>Apply the permissions specified in this rule to the static device node with
