yes, but that's very confusing.

better introduce a --enable-libusb configure option, which will check for 
libusb and aborts with an error message when libusb is not found.

we also should have a clear modeling of optional features and 
dependencies, since this would make the life of packager's much easier.

btw: the current libusb is broken - it's libfiles' names are missing .so.
