New Revision: 20756
Log:
Add the dependencies to pciutils to allow the pciutils script to function. This
is mostly for consistency between books. The systemd book has a timer and unit
to allow the pci.ids file to be updated Sundays at 2:30AM Local Time, and
without wget, lynx, or curl installed - the script fails to function.
In addition, add wget to the list of dependencies for usbutils in systemd
(again, as a result of the units)
