Now that NetBSD and OpenBSD also have libusb-1.0/libusbx support along with the legacy libusb-0.1 support. So I would like to try out pyusb under NetBSD/OpenBSD as well.
Under NetBSD 5.1.2 release, it seems to me that pyusb can not find the backends. I think this is because the libusb-0.1 and libusb-1.0 libraries are under /usr/pkg (pkgsrc system). bash-4.2$ python2.7 Python 2.7.2 (default, Nov 13 2011, 10:50:29) [GCC 4.1.3 20080704 prerelease (NetBSD nb2 20081120)] on netbsd5 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import usb.core >>> import usb.util >>> dev=usb.core.find(idVendor=0x04d8,idProduct=0xfa2e) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/usr/pkg/lib/python2.7/site-packages/usb/core.py", line 856, in find raise ValueError('No backend available') ValueError: No backend available >>> exit() bash-4.2$ pkg-config --libs libusb -Wl,-R/usr/pkg/lib -L/usr/pkg/lib -lusb bash-4.2$ pkg-config --libs libusb-1.0 -L/usr/pkg/lib -lusb-1.0 -- Xiaofan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
