how to make a snap of usbutils (i.e. lsusb)

[David Chen]

Hi Chad,

You can try below for your snapcarft.yaml:
========
parts:
     tools:
         plugin: nil
         stage-packages:
           - pciutils
           - xxx
           - yyy
           - zzz
========
Let me know if it solves your problem.

Regards,

-David
