It has been reported in Ubuntu that ipmitool 1.8.18 is missing the USB
interface.  Looking at the build logs in both Debian and Ubuntu shows that
support for usb is not being autodetected.

However, a simple change to debian/rules to force enablement of the usb
interface results in it being properly built in.

Please find attached a patch to correct this missing functionality in
ipmitool in Debian.
