Thanks for the tip, I just downloaded an tried it. It has usb_modeswitch 0.1.3
included, but dynamically linked and It requires a different libusb version to
be installed:
/tmp/sakis3gz.18844.usb_modeswitch: error while loading shared libraries:
libusb-0.1.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I had tried to compile a static version of usb_modeswitch earlier today, but
libusb is only available as a dynamic library, it seems.
On OpenSuse 12.2, there are two versions of libusb, one is (by package
description) a compatibility layer for the new version 1.0 which is also found
in DL. I manually tried to link usb_modeswitch to the new version, but that
failed.
I'd say usb_modeswitch is an important piece of software for a modern router,
so its functionality should be included in DL. But if it really depends on an
older libusb version, that could be a problem...
