libusb versions 1.0.16 and later require at least netlink support on Linux.
You can pass configure the '--disable-udev' flag to select netlink instead.

There have been many changes from v1.0.15 to v1.0.18. The latest (libusb)
is now v1.0.20-rc2. I encourage you to try that.

For future issues, please use the libusb-devel mailing list instead of
libusbx-devel. libusbx is now obsolete.
