Dear Maintainer,

the latest upstream version of libusb-0.1 is 0.1.12 (released in March 2006);

to make the legacy applications work with the current libusb-1.0,
a compatibilty layer package called libusb-compat-0.1 has been released on the 
libusb upstream site;

meanwhile, Debian has switched from libusb-1.0 (http://www.libusb.org/) to its 
fork called libusbx (http://libusbx.org/).

What are the future plans for the legacy libusb-0.1 library support in Debian?
