When renaming the Rules links I created on my site, all the reactions and visibility settings disappeared – though the corresponding components are still present. I suspect this is caused by Rules link identifying the relevant components by comparing machine names – and that component machine names aren't updated if the machine name for a link is changed.

Note: This issue would be solved by the approach suggested in #1309444: Allow links to reuse condition sets for visibility, rather than providing their own and #1280000: Replace triggering rule-sets with events. ;-)

Fixed it, by renaming the components when the link is renamed.

Will this make other rules break if they refer to the old names?

That may be... sorry for causing this problems...
