    libusb 1.0 or libusb1 what do I have

    Hi

    I'm going to install PyUsb
    https://github.com/walac/pyusb

    Say I need at least one of the supported libraries (libusb 1.0, libusb 0.1 or OpenUSB)
    What do I have ? on ubuntu 13.04

    I try apt -cache search libusb or libusb1
    It shows libusb1

    Is libusb1 the same as libusb 1.0 ? or .1 or OpenUSB ?
    I'm not sure how to interpret this

    Please advise
    Thanks

    apt-cache is not the best utility to check what you have installed unless you know the package name and want the version info. aptitude is the best tool for most command line jobs (except version info)
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install aptitude
    aptitude search libusb~i
