This is not really how a bug tracker works. Please submit a patch if you have updated and tested a new version of this package.

Don runs since i submitted that Bug LFS and root is now included (rootfile isn't usually needed because update will be a system update.... (i only created rootfile to test package locally)

Please submit the patch as described here:

> https://wiki.ipfire.org/devel/submit-patches

It HAS to be sent to the mailing list.

And please do not change the component to anything that belongs to IPFire 3.

I did trying to update libusb in the past, but stumbled across #11810. @gerd: Do you experiencing the same problem or know how to fix it?

@Peter: Why has this been marked as security-relevant? Could you please quote the changelog in those occasions?

Because I consider USB stuff being security-relevant in general. While I am not aware of any precise security vulnerability, libusb attempted to close several flaws mostly detected by fuzzing sessions within the last releases.

However: Good point. One should always quote the changelog in such cases.
