Comment (by lbschenkel):

 I'm back from vacation. I misread
 https://trac.macports.org/ticket/53188#comment:10 and didn't realize it
 was for the PCI database instead of the USB database.

 How do you suggest proceeding from here?

 1. I can create a GitHub repo right now to host a snapshot of `usb.ids`
 2. We can leverage the existing `gentoo/hwids` repo, but I need to create
 a PR against it to update the USB database to a newer version than
 2016-11-14
 3. ...something else?

 I'm inclined to take option 1 since I'm the maintainer of this port and
 everything needed will be under my control. In case there's a repo out
 that is updated often (I'm not sure if option 2 qualifies) then I don't
 object using it since it simplifies things a bit for me.
