I checked out a copy of the latest source and was able to do a ./configure, make, make install just fine on kb2kskype, but when I tried the same thing on the source in kb2kskype/usbb2k-api, the ./configure script tests some things and then blows up with the following snippet:
…
checking how to hardcode library paths into programs… immediate
appending configuration tag "F77" to libtool
checking for usb_init in -lusb… no
Error! You need to have libusb around.
I have all packages named "libusb" installed, including particularly any which say "devel". What am I missing here?
Thanks!!
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
I had ran ./configure as root, because I received warnings about permissions not allowing me to alter config.log. So, I tested just now by doing a chmod -R and chown -R against the source tree to give my username the proper rwx permissions. It worked just fine!
Hope this helps someone else if they ever face this issue!

In order to successfully to compile the API on uBuntu, you also may need the libusb development packages that are available for installation using apt-get or from Synaptic.

Nevermind! Figured it out!
