[ydl-gen] lsusb in 5.0.2 ??

[Bill Fink]

Hi Derick,

Sorry.  I didn't notice at first that you had already tried the
whereis and locate commands.

BTW the reason your 'yum info "*lsusb*"' command didn't work is
that "rpm -qi usbutils" doesn't mention lsusb, but it is in there.

gwiz% rpm -qi usbutils | grep lsusb
gwiz% rpm -ql usbutils | grep lsusb
/sbin/lsusb
/usr/share/man/man8/lsusb.8.gz
