Package: kudzu
Version: 1.1.67-1
Severity: wishlist

It would be really nice if /etc/updfstab.conf would allow to match only
USB devices in some way. For example like this:

device usb_stick {
        bus usb
        match hd
}

It might be possible to do something similar if you patch usb.c to
include "USB" in the description, which would make this work:

device usb_stick {
        match hd USB
}

Regards,
Sven

PS: I attached a small patch for updfstab.8 which corrects a small typo.
Didn't want to open a new bug just for that.

Dear bug reporter,;)

kudzu is not buildable anymore and is already removed from etch/testing.

Nobody seems to care about the package. I asked the pkg-knoppix people on alioth
but it doesn't seems to be an active project.
The main reason for packaging the kudzu hardware detection was to have it 
packaged
for knoppix. But they are still using their own kudzu build.:(

Aside from that... what are you using kudzu for? You shouldn't. (it basically
is sticking around in RH/Fedora until the installer can be ported away
from it.)

Thats why kudzu will be removed from Debian.
I'm closing all kudzu bugs.

Thanks from the kudzu maintainer.
