I'm sponsoring this case for Fenye Bao. This case is to move libraries,
commands and documents of libusb from /usr/sfw to /usr. Compatibility
symlinks will be delivered. The taxonomies will be updated to
Uncommitted. A Minor release binding is proposed.
I have marked it as "closed approved automatic" since the change is
straightforward and the interface is clear. If there is request, I'd be
happy to upgrade it to a fast track and set the timer.

4. Technical Description
4.1 Summary
This project moves libraries, commands and documents of libusb from
/usr/sfw into /usr.
Requested release binding is Minor.
4.2 Details
This case moves the USB library, libusb, and associated files from
/usr/sfw/ to /usr/. This library was delivered in packages
SUNWlibusb and SUNWlibusbugen. The library was introduced by
PSARC/2003/721 [1], and has since been updated by PSARC/2005/187 [2].
These files will continue to be delivered via the SUNWlibusb and
SUNWlibusbugen packages. Symbolic links for library and config tool
will be provided in the old location for backwards compatibility.
The Interface Stability Classification will be updated from the old
Interface Taxonomy classification (External) to the new classification
(Uncommitted).
