>Description:
On FreeBSD 8 the usb device is in its own directory. Which means that you need 'x' access to access it. However pkg-message doesn't say that.
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
I suggest these lines in pkg-message

  add path 'unlpt*' mode 0660 group cups
  add path 'ulpt*' mode 0660 group cups
  add path 'lpt*' mode 0660 group cups

are to be replaced with:

  add path 'usb*' mode 0770 group cups
  add path 'ugen*' mode 0660 group cups

or perhaps distinguish between FreeBSD 8 and earlier.
