Hi Sander, and thank you very much for the hint!
If this is really the core issue, then fixing this is easy:
usb_modeswitch_tcl currently unpacks to /var/lib/usb_modeswitch/current_cfg,
so it's a one-line patch to make it unpack to /run/usb_modeswitch_current_cfg
instead (see attached patch); this should be good for Sid, but would need more
thoughts for Squeeze as it doesn't have /run.
I compiled usb-modeswitch (for sid) with the attached patch:
http://alioth.debian.org/~odyx-guest/debian/unstable/usb-modeswitch_1.1.9-2+fix629371~attempt0_i386.deb
http://alioth.debian.org/~odyx-guest/debian/unstable/usb-modeswitch_1.1.9-2+fix629371~attempt0_amd64.deb
Christian or Sander, can you try this on a Wheezy/Sid system?
TIA, cheers,
