Subject: cycfx2prog: please switch to libusb 1.0
Date: Fri, 8 Jan 2016 19:36:07 +0100
Package: cycfx2prog
Version: 0.47-1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

cycfx2prog has a build-depends on libusb-dev. A few years ago upstream
has released a new major version libusb 1.0 with a different API which
aims to fix design deficiencies with USB 2.0 and 3.0 in mind.

The old libusb 0.1 package is not supported upstream anymore and should
be considered deprecated.

If cycfx2prog supports the new libusb 1.0 library, please consider
switching the build-depends from libusb-dev to libusb-1.0-0-dev. If not
please inform upstream that porting the software to the new API is
recommended.

Thanks,
Aurelien
