app-misc/ddcutil: Renamed from ddctool, bump to 0.6.0
This release strictly dealt with changing the name with no new bug fixes or features. Reason for rename from upstream: As of release 0.6, the name of this program is changing from ddctool to ddcutil to avoid confusion with a commerical datacenter program also named ddctool. Signed off by: Jonathan Scruggs (j.scruggs@gmail.com. irc: Dracwyrm) Closes: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/2830 Signed-off-by: David Seifert <soap@gentoo.org>

+ <longdescription>
+ ddcutil primarily uses DDC/CI (Display Data Channel Command Interface)
+ to communicate with monitors implementing MCCS (Monitor Control Command
+ Set) over I2C. Normally, the video driver for the monitor exposes the
+ I2C channel as devices named /dev/i2c-n. Alternatively, there is initial
+ support for monitors (such as Apple displays) that implement MCCS using
+ a USB connection.

+ Adds a udev rules to allow non-root users in the i2c group to
+ access the /dev/i2c-* devices. If usb-monitor is selected, users
+ will need to be added to the video group to access the USB monitor.
+ Otherwise, only root will be able to use ddcutil.
