Our existing configuration scripts work out of the box with  
libusb-compat-0.1 (at least on openSUSE 11.1+ this is the case). Other  
than installing it, no actions are needed for applications using it.  
The last release of openSUSE that shipped with native libusb-0.1 was  
11.1. At the same time they started shipping libusb-compat-0.1. Since  
openSUSE 11.2 came out, the native libusb-0.1 support was dropped from  
mainstream and is only available from the buildservice.
