## Configuration options

### udev

The configuration system should automatically detect the udev rules directory,
but you can override it by using the following argument to `configure`:

```
--with-udevrulesdir=/path/to/udev/rules.d
```

### Input group

The udev rules that are installed provide read/write access to members of the
input devices group. This defaults to `plugdev`, but can be modified using
the following argument to `configure`:

```
--with-input-group=group
```
