Sorry for the extreme delay with this.

Is this manual step still required or do the updated udev rules handle it?

If it is still necessary could you report it to Debian's BTS? Devuan doesn't
fork xf86-input-wacom and we use Debian's packages directly without
recompilation. So the fix should be included there.

Thanks.

Mark
