For those users wanting a solution: Uninstall usbip package if you've installed it.
On trusty, install linux-tools-generic-lts-utopic. I can't seem to find a package that will create a binary, but you can run the binary manually from /usr/lib/linux-tools/. As of this writing it's /usr/lib/linux- tools/3.16.0-23-generic/usbip. NOTE, I am running the HWE utopic kernel on my trusty box. On utopic or vivid install linux-tools-generic. usbip is registered as a binary in this case, you can use directly with 'usbip'. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/898003 Title: usbip source is maintained in kernel tree now Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in usbip package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux source package in Utopic: Fix Released Status in usbip source package in Utopic: Confirmed Bug description: Both the userspace and kernel module parts of usbip are in the linux kernel tree now. The source used in this package is quite old. I'm not sure how to best handle the packaging aspects here -- I imagine that it would be undesirable for usbip to be built as a side effect of the main kernel package build, because then the kernel package build would be even slower and usbip is probably not updated enough to justify that.
