This is basically a non-gpl version of libhid that will be required by media-sound/mixxx-1.11. This ebuild has been tested against mixxx-1.11 with the externalization patch I am maintaining. Reproducible: Always

You should create tarball of git snapshot and put it somewhere

Any reason you need prereleases? Would 0.7.0 work?
checking for fox... configure: error: Package requirements (fox) were not met: Package fox was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `fox.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable Package 'fox', required by 'world', not found Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables fox_CFLAGS and fox_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details.

LICENSE should be "|| ( BSD GPL-3 HIDAPI )"
Also, shouldn't the libusb dependency be optional? At least for some targets, like i686-pc-mingw32

Its in the tree. Please open a new bug if there's any problem with it. This bug was just to get it in the tree.

( x11-libs/fox ). Did you somehow manage to build it without the fox dependency? If fox is installed, what version?
