Comment(by bdubbs@…):

 I have a couple of questions.  Why do we need to remove the usb group
 completely?  I would think it would be useful to have a default group for
 usb devices.

 Second, with the exception of the 'About Devices' section where there is
 an example line:

 usbfs  /proc/bus/usb  usbfs  devgid=14,devmode=0660  0  0

 where the 14 is the usb group defined in LFS,  my search showed no
 references to the usb group in all of BLFS.  I could have missed it
 though.

 Exactly what do you think should be done to re-close this ticket?
