I ran lsusb with strace and it tries to open files It looks like that once again udev has changed the permission on the USB device nodes to something like 0660. This is plainly wrong. Note that read permissions on the device does not allow any transfer, as ioctls need write access. I am therefore cloning this bug to udev. > under /dev/bus/usb/nnn/nnn which are not world readable.

I will update the manpage in the next upload. > It would also be nice for lsusb to report that it fails to open files. Unfortunately that is not possible has usbutils does not open the files itself.
