The problem here is that all hypervisors might want access to the USB devices (kvm, qemu, virtualbox, etc.). If the device group is package-specific that will cause all sorts of unwanted and unnecessary issues for users that work with multiple hypervisors. It would make sense to have a separate package that all hypervisors can either depend on or recommend that uses a group specially for the purpose, and assigns it via a udev rule. "plugdev" might have been good but if it is being deprecated then some other solution needs to be found. -- Could not open /proc/bus/usb/devices https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/156085 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
