[Python-modules-team] Bug#966195: python3-hid: references an unreleased API from libhidapi, resulting in undefined symbols

[Joerg B]

Package: python3-hid
Version: 0.9.0.post3-1
Severity: grave
Tags: a11y upstream
Justification: renders package unusable
X-Debbugs-Cc: tz123123123 at gmx.de

Dear Maintainer,

I have an app depending on this package but since
the last update of python3-hid, I am unable to run it.

Simply running 
$ python3 -c "import hidraw"
or
$ python3 -c "import hid"
exposes the issue.
