Hannu, Thank you for figuring that out! I've submitted a patch to make nut conditional. I'm still not clear how to fix nut so it can find libusb - there is likely a patch needed to its autoconf files I suppose. I wonder, for future reference what is the best way to determine what is causing a package to be built? I grepped DEPENDS from all Makefiles looking for nut and of course came up empty.
