Bug#780650: systemd: Sources not shipped for hwdb files

Package: systemd
Severity: serious

Files in ./hwdb/*.hwdb are mostly pregenerated. They are generated using
ids-update.pl script from usb.ids, pci.ids, sdio.ids, oui.txt, iab.txt.

I'm not sure what the license is of those .ids/.txt files.

Please ship ids-update.pl and the ids/txt files as part of the source
package. And possibly use them to regenerate ./hwdb/*.hwdb files at
built time.

Regards,

Dimitri.
