$ find /usr/share /var/lib/usbutils/ -name usb.ids -exec ls -l {} \;
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 May 8 2012 /usr/share/misc/usb.ids ->
/var/lib/usbutils/usb.ids
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 May 8 2012 /usr/share/hwdata/usb.ids ->
../misc/usb.ids
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 461454 Dec 26 2011 /var/lib/usbutils/usb.ids
$ find /usr/share /var/lib/usbutils/ -name usb.ids -exec dpkg -S {} \;

usbutils: /var/lib/usbutils/usb.ids
