Hotplug installs itself without complaining when usbutils is not installed. When trying to run /etc/rc.d/hotplug, the following error message appears :

which: no usbmodules in (/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin)
** can't synthesize root hub events

usbmodules is called from /etc/hotplug/usb.rc.

The usbmodules command is in the usbutils package.
This task depends upon

Okay. Was this on a 2.4 or a 2.6 kernel?

I was getting this error with usbutils installed, but a reinstall fixed
it (2.6.7 kernel):


[root@strongbad ~]# /etc/rc.d/hotplug restart
:: Starting Hotplug Daemon [BUSY] which: no usbmodules in (/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin)
** can't synthesize root hub events [DONE]
[root@strongbad ~]# pacman -S usbutils
:: usbutils-0.11-4: is up to date. Upgrade anyway? [Y/n]

Targets: usbutils-0.11-4

Proceed with upgrade? [Y/n]

Moved usbutils into base, added usbutils as a hotplug dependency for the next build.
