USB device often named incorrectly #142

I am facing some weird issue on the output from lsusb, appending HD USB Camera to some USB devices names, as can be seen below:

Bus 001 Device 011: ID 32e4:9520 HD Camera Manufacturer HD USB Camera
Bus 001 Device 014: ID 060e:0960 Transmonde Technologies, Inc. HD USB Camera
Bus 001 Device 019: ID 0b05:1939 ASUSTek Computer, Inc. HD USB Camera
Bus 001 Device 018: ID 04b8:0e28 Seiko Epson Corp. HD USB Camera

this is from usbutils 012, as below:

lsusb --version
lsusb (usbutils) 012

Is there any work around this to have USB devices properly named?

Version 012 was from 2019. This issue should be fixed in the latest version, please upgrade and see if it resolves the issue or not for you.

It really fixed it after upgrading to latest 014. Do you have the commit hash which fixed it for reference?

Thank you so much, by the way

I do not remember, sorry. Look in the git history, I think it was a number of different commits to do so. Just update to the latest version, that's the better thing to always do anyway, never cherry-pick things.
