Update-Tool breaks Ublox GPS device because of missing /dev/serial/by-id link #517

Description

@bleriotx

I just ran the Build-a-Pi Update-Tool on my 32-bit Pi3B+ and it broke my UBlox GPS clock sync.

There is a bug in the latest release of Debian that affects the Pi.
The /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-serial.rules has a bug in it that prevents the creation of the symbolic link /dev/serial/by-id.

This will break your Ublox GPS device.

To fix it - do the following:

  1. sudo cp /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-serial.rules /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-serial.rules.ori
  2. Replace the /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-serial.rules file with the one found here:
    https://github.com/systemd/systemd/tree/main/rules.d/60-serial.rules
  3. Reboot and you should be good to go.

Thanks to all who created this killer project. I use my Build-A-Pi on POTA activation's a lot!
