I’m not familiar with Nobara, but I can at least show how I would install pyUSB for use in Debian:

If you follow the instructions exactly as in the readme, it will error:

<span style="color:#323232;">$ pip install pyusb
</span><span style="color:#323232;">error: externally-managed-environment
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">× This environment is externally managed
</span><span style="color:#323232;">╰─</span><span style="font-weight:bold;color:#a71d5d;">></span><span style="color:#323232;"> To install Python packages system-wide, try apt install
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    python3-xyz, where xyz is the package you are trying to
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    install.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    If you wish to install a non-Debian-packaged Python package,
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    create a virtual environment using python3 -m venv path/to/venv.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    Then use path/to/venv/bin/python and path/to/venv/bin/pip. Make
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    sure you have python3-full installed.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    If you wish to install a non-Debian packaged Python application,
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    it may be easiest to use pipx install xyz, which will manage a
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    virtual environment for you. Make sure you have pipx installed.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    See /usr/share/doc/python3.11/README.venv for more information.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">note: If you believe this is a mistake, please contact your Python installation or OS distribution provider. You can override this, at the risk of breaking your Python installation or OS, by passing --break-system-packages.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">hint: See PEP 668 for the detailed specification.
</span>

Instead, I would create a virtual environment (I’m using virtualenv instead of venv)

<span style="color:#323232;">$ virtualenv unihub_test
</span>

Then activate the environment and run the install with pip

<span style="color:#323232;">$ source ~/unihub_test/bin/activate
</span><span style="color:#323232;">(unihub_test) $ pip install pyusb
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Collecting pyusb

</span><span style="color:#323232;">(unihub_test) $ python3
</span><span style="font-weight:bold;color:#a71d5d;">>>></span><span style="color:#323232;"> import usb </span><span style="font-style:italic;color:#969896;">#this should not error
</span><span style="font-weight:bold;color:#a71d5d;">>>></span><span style="color:#323232;"> exit()
</span><span style="color:#323232;">(unihub_test) $ deactivate
</span><span style="color:#323232;">$ 
</span>

Without the actual hub, that’s as far as I can go I think - but maybe this will help give you some options and documentation to explore!
