Support for /proc/bus/usb has been dropped because it is racey, and
permissions are difficult to set -- compared with /dev/bus/usb which is
maintained by udev and doesn't have these issues.

Ubuntu is not the only distribution to have dropped it.

If your software is using /proc/bus/usb, it is broken -- you've had over
a year to change it, and you've failed to do so.  Please change your
software to use /dev/bus/usb now.

I've rejected your sysvinit bug; this is deliberate and is definitely
not a bug.

Also your assertion about using /sys is entirely bogus - no devices
exist under /sys.

** Changed in: sysvinit (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
