You're aware this is 2 years old, right?

I've checked upstream and they seem to be making changes to the source code. How
about asking them to make a new release if possible?

Due to the low activity of this project and simplicity of the functionality, we
will probably end up implementing our own back-end. So I'm not really there to
push them for it. They (if the company has more than one person, which I doubt)
might have abandoned the library as their official site doesn't even mention
0.7.0 and stays at 0.6.0.

+Description:
+HIDAPI is a multi-platform library which allows an application to interface with
+USB and Bluetooth HID-Class devices on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X. While it
+can be used to communicate with standard HID devices like keyboards, mice, and
+Joysticks, it is most useful when used with custom (Vendor-Defined) HID devices.
