Before 13.10 was added to the PPA, a work around is to do the following:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:colingille/freshlight
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/colingille-freshlight-saucy.list
(change saucy to raring)
sudo apt-get update 
sudo apt-get install winusb

For Ubuntu 14.04, the repository is not current, but you can download the .deb and install with dpkg
