I'm trying to get a Tiva Launchpad EK-TM4C1294XL working with my laptop which is running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. I've been following this guide, but I'm stuck on step 9. When I run the make command, I get the following error:

Package libusb-1.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libusb-1.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'libusb-1.0' found
cc -Wall  lm4flash.c  -o lm4flash
lm4flash.c:30:20: fatal error: libusb.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
Makefile:22: recipe for target 'lm4flash' failed
make: *** [lm4flash] Error 1

The closest post I've found with a similar libusb error was this one but I'm not using cmake so the solution doesn't work for me.

I suspect that it doesn’t make any difference whether you’re using ``make`` or ``cmake``. – Scott - Слава Україні Jan 17 '19 at 03:30
I only mention it because the other question I linked gave a solution that involved changing a file in a directory called `cmake_modules` which I don't have – Jared Lauer Jan 17 '19 at 05:10
