Libusb version

Is there any reason why the version in the repo is still v1.0.9?

The reason is simply Trisquel 6 is based on Ubuntu 12.04.
You can see if upstream versions are still free software and if the present libraries are new enough to run them. (Note that if you manually install something outside the package manager, it will not get automatic updates.)

I installed libusbx-1.0.18 (built it from the source package). My data acquisition program doing control and bulk transfers on a Measurement Computing device works fine. See
