Permissions for /dev/fuse changing at boot

Every time my system reboots, ownership of /dev/fuse is changed from
root.fuse to root.root. How can I make the changes permanent, so that
users in the fuse group have access to the device across reboots?

Udev rule, probably.

I suggest to wait for the bugs correction to income to unstable or
testing (depending on your installation):

So I suspect. Is this easy to fix? Where are udev rules defined and
modified for the local system? Running 'fgrep -r fuse /etc/udev/*'
returns nothing.

If this is a known bug, that's good to know, too.

My Lenny system has this in /etc/udev/rules.d/91-permissions.rules
KERNEL=="fuse", GROUP="fuse"

What package does that belong to? I apparently don't have it on my
system running testing/unstable.

On unstable the rule is in /lib/udev/rules.d/60-fuse-utils.rules, which
belongs to the fuse-utils package (version 2.8.1-1).

Testing still seems to have an earlier version of fuse-utils from which
this rule is missing.

Lenny has /etc/udev/rules.d/91-permissions.rules (from the udev package
itself) to set the fuse group, but this was removed in later versions of
udev. (Permissions for devices like fuse should be handled by udev rules
that are provided by the dedicated packages associated with these
devices rather than by udev itself.)
