I already assumed that the megatec driver would be backported (you already
said you would do that). The above mainly deals with the widespread
changes in the USB code. Even though usbhid-ups is the only driver for a
'true' HID Power Device, many USB drivers linked in 'libhid' because of
the device matching code. That's not pretty, since every change to libhid
might break these drivers. Therefor I removed the device matching stuff
from libhid.c and put that in libusb.c, as we're interfacing to the libusb
library.
Best regards, Arjen
