Title:
  FFe: Please merge or sync usb-modeswitch from Debian unstable/testing
  - current package is obsolete and latest usb-modeswitch-data will not
  work

Status in “usb-modeswitch” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  We believe that usb-modeswitch needs to be synched from Debian again:

  New upstream versions of usb-modeswitch (2.2.0) and usb-modeswitch-
  data (20140529) released 4 months ago and were packaged in Debian
  unstable since June!

  Lots of other Huawei related issues, like bug #1308895, bug #1192297
  and lots of other bugs are fixed in updated usb-modeswitch
  (2.2.0+repack0-2) and usb-modeswitch-data (20140529-1) packages in
  Debian unstable.

  Please merge usb-modeswitch 2.2.0+repack0-2 package from Debian
  unstable to Ubuntu Utopic.

  Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre already did the merging job (see branch
  bellow) - please merge usb-modeswitch 2.2.0+repack0-2 package from
  Debian unstable to Ubuntu 14.10 (Utopic).

  Here is usb-modeswitch 2.2.0+repack0-2 packaging code with patches:
