You are right, but it is something very cryptic at the basis, as this is
something done by Option for Windows users only, without respecting the USB
standards.
This package is very specific and will only be used by people with such
hardware.
I will try and improve the descriptions to make things clearer.

Grr I don't understand what I have done as I had to repack the sources to
remove this binary.
I do not understand neither why I wasn't warned by lintian on my build
machine (I used svn-buildpackage -svn-lintian which gave no error nor
warning!)
I will have a look at all these things ASAP, but most probably not before
the end of the week.
Cheers,
Julien
