Description WANG Chao 2011-08-15 10:29:28 UTC 
Description of problem:
Wrong file for lsusb man-page
when you man lsusb
you see:
FILES
       /usr/share/usb.ids
              A list of all known USB ID’s (vendors, products, classes, subclasses and protocols).
(which /usr/share/usb.ids actually doesn't exit)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
usbutils-003-2.el6

How reproducible:
100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1.man lsusb
2.keep pressing j until you see the FILES section
3.
  
Actual results:
/usr/share/usb.ids

Expected results:
I believe /usr/share/hwdata/usb.ids is what we need.
