Humm...
I've still around a patch making ldetect using libusb.
Sadly, we're missing some data...
Basically we would miss the kernel driver name binded with each usb device.
We cannot workaround it since libusb misses with the ability to either
query the sysfs device path or to got the Port number
("Port" in /proc/bus/usb/devices).
(I miss the Port number in order to compute the
/sys/bus/devices/usb/foobar path)
W/o that I cannot retrieve the modalias which would help me to get the kernel
driver name.
I guess I'll have to resurect that work and try harder to find some
workaround...
See you
