Don't use udev so cannot check that. Perhaps time for devuan to switch
to vdev, is it ready for prime time ?

Why don't udev place its rules close to the kernel modules directory,
that would make more sense, or put them under /etc as is the
conventional wisdom. But then, /etc-less systems are thought about:
