Generate hotplug usb.usermap

Usage

update-usb.usermap

Overview

update-usb.usermap automatically generates usb.usermap. update-usb.usermap will be ran automatically when Debian packages that contain usb.usermap files are installed or removed from the system.

update-usb.usermap uses the package-supplied usb.usermap entry files (in /usr/lib/hotplug) for it's information about the usb modules map (but this can be overruled by the system administrator, see below). If a usb.usermap entry file is executable, update-usb.usermap execute the usb.usermap entry file, and use it's stdout to generate the usb.usermap database.

Files

usb.usermap files:

/etc/hotplug/usb.usermap.local

usb.usermap files added by the system administrator.

/usr/lib/hotplug/*/user.usermap

usb.usermap files provided by other Debian packages.
