Just for information :
* all removed programs were working for me (except mdmdetect, not
tested). I know they can be rewritten very easily but ...
* you use discover data files, which uses 2.2.x naming scheme for
modules. Previous pci.lst (for hwdata) used 2.4.x naming scheme.
* now ethdetect need to parse this file at runtime (former ethdetect was
using a static .h)
I think diskdetect can be useful, but maybe devfs and libparted supercedes
it.
And I don't know if you need to add python to the build-depends of ddetect?
