Can you please squash these it looks like two commits are meaningless and get overwritten.

Also, can you describe what you're trying to fix? It was intended that on Non-Windows machines you'd use libftdi and not the d2xx drivers which didn't exist when this package was written.

Thanks,

Logan

Squashed.

We want to use the d2xx drivers on linux and mac. The drivers are available for all the platforms now. If d2xx drivers are not installed libftdi will be loaded.

Cheers, Jakub
