CentOS - Dec 2014 - Error: libusb-1.0.so.0 is needed....

Trying to install Canon printer driver package (rpm), I get a dependency 
error:

libusb-1.0.so.0 is needed....

The version currently installed on my 5.9 system is libusb-0.1.12-6.el5 
and, AFAIK (per yum), no upgrade to that is available.

So question: Do higher centos versions have libusb-1.0.so ?  (We could 
perform a quick inventory with:

uname -r; rpm -q libusb

Thanks.

The canon rpm does not fit for your CentOS release.

Btw. update to CentOS 5.11 running "yum update". 5.9 is outdated by 
security and bug fixes.
