lsusb fails on MacOS Monterey - Intel

[azric]

I did a "brew install lsusb", which completed, but "lsusb" errors with "invalid integer constant"

Anyone have thoughts on how to fix this?

This happen also on M1 Monterey 12.4

[SMillerDev]

Have you tried reporting this to the developers instead of the packagers?

Any solution? I have same issue on OSX Monterey with M1

[laclouis5]

I have the same issue. I checked the Homebrew lsusb repo but it has not been updated in 9 years so the project is likely abandoned.

The issue is actually with system_profiler SPUSBDataType, there is no Bus Number to parse out (for the below line):

bus_num=`echo "$device" | egrep "Bus Number" | sed -e 's/Bus Number://' -e 's/0x//; s/^ *//g' -e 's/ *$//g'`

This is the device object

I've fixed the parsing issue in jlhonora/lsusb#23, you can pull that file and use

[udp1024]

It doesn't look like you have merged the pull. The file is still showing from 2014.

@udp1024 you have to switch to the branch https://github.com/phuclv90/lsusb/tree/fix_broken_lsusb to see the new file
