+
+Additionally, Guix package definitions can be included in @var{rules} in
+order to extend the udev rules with the definitions found under their
address@hidden/udev/rules.d} sub-directory.  In lieu of the previous
address@hidden>udev-rule} example, we could have used the
address@hidden package which exists in Guix in the @code{(gnu
+packages android)} module.
+
+The following example shows how to use the @var{android-udev-rules}
+package so that the Android tool @command{adb} can detect devices
+without root privileges.  It also details how to create the
address@hidden group, which is required for the proper functioning of
+the rules defined within the @var{android-udev-rules} package.  To
+create such a group, we must define it both as part of the
address@hidden of our @var{user-account} declaration, as
+well as in the @var{groups} field of the @var{operating-system} record.
