This tarball is messed up:
[ /tmp/omg ] $ file libopenusb_1.1.11.orig.tar.gz
libopenusb_1.1.11.orig.tar.gz: compress'd data 16 bits
It's not compressed with gzip, but with "compress". A fix would be to
add support for that, although I doubt it makes sense (who makes such
tarballs, really?). It would be "solved" with the same trick that was
mentioned in https://bugs.debian.org/851285.
