this is changed in the CVS now and I would like if someone contact the libusb upstream maintainer and ask him to fix it. We did way too much talking now for something that should be fixed upstream. > It seems that making a package pkg-config-aware but not depend on > pkg-config isn't trivial. :( Actually it is not, because it is only a file.
