[Bug 316511] [NEW] udev rule is almost certainly wrong

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: speechd-up

The udev rule included in the speechd-up package is as follows:

----8<--------8<--------8<--------8<----
RUN+="/usr/bin/speechd-up -d"
---->8-------->8-------->8-------->8----

With nothing else.  No matches on any subsystem, on any device name, any
environment or sysfs attributes.

This means that "/usr/bin/speechd-up -d" will be run for every single
kobject on the system, during the udevtrigger phase.

On my system here, it means that it will be run ~1019 times.

I suspect this is wrong :p
