#include <usb.h> is correct, since it tries to find the "/usr/include/usb.h=
"=20
header installed there by libusb.

The kernel header <linux/usb.h> Shouldn't be used by userspace programs, es=

since libusb provides a nice, portable abstraction of the kernel interfaces.

make sure you have libusb and the related devel packages (headers) installe=
d=20
and re-run configure.
