Bug#944836: discover-data: Embeds old copies of pci.ids and usb.ids
Source: discover-data
Source-Version: 2.2013.01.11
Severity: normal
Hi!
This package embeds old copies of the pci.ids and usb.ids databases
which get converted into xml files.
These databases are now packaged on their own source and binary
packages so that it's very easy to update regularly.
It would be best if this package could switch to use those, at least
as Build-Depends-Indep. So that just with a binNMU it could get the
updated databases.
(I guess ideally the consumer(s) of the xml files would switch to use
the pci.ids and usb.ids files directly.)
Thanks,
Guillem
