Yeah, I managed to miss that 3-line part of that e-mail some 259 emails back.
Sometimes the LKML firehose sucks. :)

Admittedly, it was mostly the sudden "Wait - why isn't there a update-usbids
on my laptop?" panic - at least now I understand what happened.

So I grabbed it from the GIT tree, turns out Fedora is already packaging the
current version of usb.ids as part of the 'hwdata' RPM rather than 'usbutils',
so the practical impact of the whole thing dropped a big chunk.  Still need to
get them to upgrade from 0.73 to 0.82 though.

Thanks for the clue-by-four... ;)
