Title:
  Replace libusb-0.1 with libusb-compat-0.1

Status in libusb package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in libusb package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  See http://www.libusb.org/wiki/libusb-compat-0.1

  From http://www.libusb.org/:

  "However, if you have installed libusb-1.0 then we strongly recommend
  to use libusb-compat-0.1 instead of the ancient libusb-0.1 code, so
  that programs which use both the 0.1 API and the 1.0 API in different
  parts of the program, or in different libraries used by the program,
  will both end up using libusb-1.0 for actual device access. This is
  important to avoid potential conflicts between libusb-1.0 and
  libusb-0.1 being used by the same process."
