As one would expect, switching the build dependency was not enough:

checking for libusb-config... no
configure: error: cannot build garmintools without libusb
debian/rules:19: recipe for target 'config.status' failed
make: *** [config.status] Error 1
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2
E: Failed autobuilding of package
