Fix so novacomd works with new libusb-compat

[jdieter]

Use usb-bulk-[read|write] instead of homemade handlers. This allows us to
run against libusb-compat as well as the old libusb.

I just tested this with libusb-compat on Fedora, works great. Thanks for being awesome, Jonathon :)

Thanks, I'm getting this reviewed for Fedora at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=809114 and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=809116.

Is Mohamed still actively reviewing those packages? I'd love to help you get them in to fedora (I'm sponsored, as well, and was testing your patches to build an RPM locally ;) )

[jdieter]

Sorry for the delay, but, yes, Mohamed finished reviewing the packages and novacom and novacomd are both available in the Fedora and EPEL repositories (currently updates-testing for F15+ and EL5+).

To install both (the common use-case), just install novacom using yum.

That's awesome. Now if only @openwebos would review your patches :(

Congratulations, by the way, it looks like your changes got into Fedora, or am I misreading the bug reports you link to?

Any update on getting these merged?

The original submitter needs to send it up with the DCO.
