Description of problem: I think the installation of adb from the android-tools package should also create a group called plugdev and then add the user to it so that when you run adb devices the adb server can see the connected device because as of now it doesn't. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 10.0.0r2-3 How reproducible: All the time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a terminal window. 2. Login as root. 3. Run urpmi android-tools 4. Connect a device and enable USB Debugging. Press Yes when prompted if you want to allow USB Debugging. 5. Exit to normal user shell. 6. Type adb devices. 7. Insufficient permissions is the result.
Having the sudo usermod -aG plugdev $LOGNAME command being runned during installation of android-tools would help a lot.
Please see bug 28860 ! Also it is not needed to open several android-tools bug for similar issue: bug 28860 bug 26474 bug 24139 bug 27414 bug 23715

Which user(s) should be added to the group given a linux system may have many users, not just one. Also note that any users added to a group must logout and then back in for a group change to take effect. The decision of what users to add to what groups has to remain under the control of the admin of that system. It's fine for installation of the package to create such a group, but not to automatically select users to add to the group.

Having looked at all the bugs listed by DavidW, bug 28860 is indeed the one to go for. Lots of references to group 'plugdev', and: https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28860#c2 specifically suggests adding that group. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 28860 ***
