+to an FPGA. To use @code{openfpgaloader} without root privileges it is
+necessary to install the necessary udev rules. This can be done by extending

+this package, as in:
+@lisp
+(udev-rules-service 'openfpgaloader openfpgaloader #:groups '(\"plugdev\")

+Additionally, the @samp{plugdev} group should be registered in the
+@code{supplementary-groups} field of your @code{user-account} declaration. Refer
+to @samp{info \"(guix) Base Services\"} for examples.")
