How can it be fixed?

the issue is with the package hidapi:

ape-ledger/setup.py

Line 60 in 36c79ad

"hidapi==0.10.1",

i am not sure what's the best way to fix this here, because it seems to work just about fine one my MacBook, but github ci really doesn't like it.

Fill this in if you have ideas on how the bug could be fixed.

@bout3fiddy hidapi requires libusb but doesn't seem to actually install it as part of the pip installation process it seems. Have you tried installing libusb-dev in your CI builds?

For macOS they already have compatible libraries installed, and I think quite a few Linux distributions do too but not all of them
