Bug description:
  [Impact]
  udev rules and systemd service file are installed in the wrong path due to assuming that dh_install can rename files, instead it installed the files under the "renamed" directory

  [Test case]
  try to use a serial wacom device, it fails

  [Regression potential]
  none, restore original behaviour

  Recently I upgraded ubuntu from 14.04 to 14.10 on my HP EliteBook 2760p. After that, all serial wacom devices (for the touchscreen) are gone:
     serial wacom stylus
     serial wacom eraser
     serial wacom touch

  xinput -list and xsetwacom --list don't show these devices and the
  Wacom Tablet section of the system setings reports 'no tablet
  detected' rather than showing the usual settings. Booting with the old
  linux 3.13 kernel makes no difference to the new version 3.16.

  To find out what happened I played around on a spare partition with the following results:
  1) fresh installation of 14.10 - result is the same like reported above: no touch devices
  2) fresh installation of 14.04 - touch works out of the box
  3) upgraded the fresh installation of trusty to utopic: touch devices gone again
  4) manually changed repos to utopic after fresh installation of 14.04 and updated ONLY the xserver-xorg-input-wacom package: apt pulled some dependencies and installed without errors, touch devices gone (so it reproduces the error exactly as the full upgrade)

  WORKAROUND: Replace the udev rule /lib/udev/rules.d/69-wacom.rules/wacom.rules by the old file from Ubuntu 14.04 by putting it in /lib/udev/rules.d/ :
