Re: Updating libgusb in jessie-backports

[Gianfranco Costamagna <locutusofborg@debian.org>]

Hello,

>This certainly makes sense to include in the package, I'm adding it...


thanks!

>Why was it needed? Upstream specifies glib-2.0 >= 2.38.0 in
>configure.ac, so we match that...

probably upstream forgot to update the minimum version bump.
(I used the version in backports as minimum version, but maybe
the correct version is between 2.42.1 and 2.48).

don't know, sorry :)
(and I don't care too much to understand when the API changed, since 2.48 is already
in backports)

thanks for the fix!
