Broken as of macOS 26+

[tommythorn]

This utility is probably not maintained anymore, but for the record, since macOS 26, lsusb prints nothings at all, regardless of flags given. Presumably the API has changed.

damn... just noticed this too... : [

fwiw I use https://github.com/LanikSJ/lsusb as suggested in another issue and it works fine, but the problem is that homebrew still uses this one by default.

Did you try reinstalling? I fixed it as of a few weeks ago, lmk if it's still broken.

Still shows nothing for me on 26.1

[tommythorn]

Installed with brew update;brew tap jlhonora/lsusb; brew install lsusb and still shows nothing. Meanwhile lsusb-laniksj still works

Yes the brew version points to version 1.0, which is quite old (10+):

  url "https://github.com/jlhonora/lsusb/releases/download/1.0/lsusb-1.0.tar.gz"
  sha256 "68cfa4a820360ecf3bbd2a24a58f287d41f66c62ada99468c36d5bf33f9a3b94"

Since the repo contains the macOS Tahoe fixes already it would be just to cut a new release and update the homebrew Formula (and I would suggest adding a HEAD target in the formula as well so people can get fixes even without a release) @jlhonora could you update the brew tap?

Many thanks for this project, I'm using it since release 1.0 I guess :)
