[Bug 1084855] [NEW] udev is creating symlinks for optical drives incorrectly

[Martin Jackson]

Public bug reported:

Udev is creating symlinks for /dev/dvd and /dev/dvd1 both pointing to
/dev/sr1, despite the fact that the machine discovers (and I can use
/dev/sr0.

(I have two DVD-RW drives in this machine, both of the same make and
model.)  I have tried removing /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules,
and it hasn't helped.

As a workaround, I am using the /dev/sr0 and /dev/sr1 block devices for
the moment.  This seems to be a new behavior with 12.10.
