Description Luke-Jr 2020-12-04 20:59:34 UTC 
usbutils builds, but does not install the usbreset tool.

Not sure why upstream has it as "noinst", but other distros (eg, Ubuntu) seem to be installing it, and it's pretty handy...

Added now. Thanks for pointing that out, it absolutely solves USB on some flakey hardware I have, where the other solution I had was very heavy-handed (rmmod&modprobe)
