I'd like to add my voice to this request. We have a commercial application which relies on libusb. On Windows we have built/packaged libusb-0 ourselves and have no issues. On Linux we rely on the system's libusb. This showed no issues on Fedora (our main Linux platform), which ships libusb-compat. We've semi-recently added Ubuntu builds, but we run into problems due to the libusb-0 package. Applying Marius' manual replacement solves our application problems, but of course the update manager will try to reinstall the libusb-0 package. It's a little tricky to communicate this situation to customers. Also, as the bug description mentions, we could run into 0.1 and 1.0 mingling when a customer uses our SDK in their own application. Availability of a libusb-compat package would be a great help.
