DetailsSince version 0.5.x brightnessctl doesn't need udev rules, or special privileges. It can use a systemd-logind over dbus to change the brightness.
It just needs to be compiled (and installed) with the ENABLE_SYSTEMD=1 flag. for reference check these commits among others: https://github.com/Hummer12007/brightnessctl/commit/99c21787cbbbde7ca1eb57abc8e7e3b3101eeb6d https://github.com/Hummer12007/brightnessctl/commit/2fe7b1f99abedcc866989208ff95cf73314e321a attached is a patch ps. brightnessctl.install is no longer needed, since no udev rules are installed
