Thanks for that. I tried downgrading pyusb but it seemed difficult. I tried changing fousb.py to use the new version of pyusb but it seemed difficult. I tried making fousb.py use the legacy interface to pyusb but that turned into a black hole of pain.
So I hacked fousb.py to execute the yepkit command directly. yuck! but it seems to work.
