one allocated in main()?
It is my mistake. Surely there could be only one BCatalog and
initialization. I did not think clearly there.
The patch also still contains translation-unfriendly string composition:

{{{
BString string = B_TRANSLATE("Device Name\t\t\t\t: %1\n"
"Manufacturer\t\t\t: %2\n"
"Driver used\t\t\t\t: %3\n"
"Device paths\t: %4\n");
string.ReplaceFirst("%1", GetName());
string.ReplaceFirst("%2", GetManufacturer());
string.ReplaceFirst("%3", GetDriverUsed());
string.ReplaceFirst("%4", GetDevPathsPublished());
return string;
}}}

languages) and the number of tabs can be adjusted for the actual string
widths, so that the alignment can be preserved.
Thank you. It was just I said that I'm an ordinary programmer, not a guru.
You can always find several solutions but gurus find better solutions and
faster. ;)
