Very nice, thanks so much for doing this. I'll go apply it and push out a new version of usbutils soon with this in it. Can this mean I can drop the usb.ids file from the usbutils package? I can't remember where hwdb is generated from, does it rely on the usb.ids file for the initial creation? thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
