Richard,

maybe the libusb 1.0 is not packaged by Debian.
To compile it from source:

# go your home dir
cd ~
# download the package
wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/libusb/libusb-1.0.0.tar.bz2
# unzip it
bunzip2 libusb-1.0.0.tar.bz2
# create the directory tree
tar -xvf libusb-1.0.0.tar
# go into source dir
cd libusb-1.0.0
# configure, compile and install
./configure
make
sudo make install

         *am*
