Description of problem: libusb-config is missing from libusb-devel. Perhaps this was a deliberate choice? As far as I understand, all the same relevant information can be obtained with pkg-config, but some other packages use libusb-config at the configuration stage, e.g., gpsbabel (see Additional info, below). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libusb-0.1.3-7.fc15.src.rpm How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. enter libusb-config at the command prompt Actual results: bash: libusb-config: command not found Expected results: libusb-config can be used to obtain linking information and flags for libusb Additional info: # rpm -ql libusb-devel | grep config /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/libusb.pc As far as I can tell, libusb-config is not available in any package available in standard repositories for Fedora 15: yum provides */libusb-config ... No Matches found I found this issue when trying to use gpsbabel with a USB device. Under Fedora 14 this worked, but under Fedora 15 I get: USB support is not available in this build. (gpsbabel-1.4.2-5.fc15.src.rpm) When configuring gpsbabel 1.4.2 from source, detection of libusb fails (although ./configure succeeds) because of the absence of libusb-config: checking for libusb... checking for libusb-config... false
I just wanted to report the same issue. This is a regression.
This has been introduced with: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=libusb.git;a=commitdiff;h=a82f37afdf2bca8db2312e1612a63a7edd0d4176 adding libusb-config back to the package allows me to rebuild the gpsbabel rpm with usb support.
I just wrote a mail to Hans Ulrich Niedermann who seems to be maintaining gpsbabel, which is rendered useless to me by this issue.
Sorry, I've missed that. libusb-config is back in libusb-0.1.3-8.fc15

@Jan could you rebuilt gpsbable which was broken by this?
@Felix, I don't have permissions to do that. I created separate bug 715220 on gpsbabel, you were added to CC. I suppose the maintainers will react soon.
libusb-config works again after updating with libusb-0.1.3-9.fc15. Fixed for me. Thanks!
