This bug was flagged as having a patch attached. The Ubuntu Kernel Team's preferred policy is for all patches to be submitted and accepted into the upstream kernel before agreeing to merge them into the Ubuntu kernel. The goal for the Ubuntu kernel is to have little to no divergence from the upstream linux kernel source.

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/KernelPatches has been written to document the suggested policy and procedures for helping get a patch merged upstream and subsequently into the Ubuntu kernel. Please take the time to review that wiki if this patch should be considered for inclusion into the upstream and Ubuntu kernel. Let us know if you have any questions or need any help via the Ubuntu Kernel Team mailing list. Thanks in advance.

Upon closer examination it doesn't seem this file is maintained in the kernel source. However, examining http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids, it seems this patch has already been applied so I'll go ahead and close this bug.

Spelling is correct in

http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids

and the fix is present in lucid version of usbutils

usbutils_0.86-2ubuntu1_amd64.deb

and seems to work fine when installed in karmic
