This bug is not exclusive to qemu/kvm; it affects any software that deals with USB devices in userspace. I consider any USB /dev node not group-owned by plugdev to be a release-critical bug. You should put the following command into some kind of cron job:
ls -gR /dev/usb* /dev/bus/usb|grep -v ^d|grep -qv plugdev && echo Bug 60273 is not fixed! -- usb is not available as normal user https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/60273 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
