[Pkg-phototools-devel] Bug#522550: libgphoto2-2: Error (-53: 'Could not claim the USB device')

[mitch]

Package: libgphoto2-2
Version: 2.4.4-1
Severity: important

An error occurred in the io-library ('Could not claim the USB device'):
 Could not claim interface 0 (Operation not permitted). Make sure no
 other program or kernel module (such as sdc2xx, stv680, spca50x) is
 using the device and you have read/write access to the device. ***
 Error (-53: 'Could not claim the USB device') ***  

This is due to a change in packaging of libgphoto2 on the Debian
side which somehow temporary lost the ability to set permissions for
generic PTP Cameras.

Open a Debian bugreport, give the libgphoto2 maintainer my greetings and
he should add this line:

	{"Canon:EOS 50D",                       0x04a9, 0x319b, PTP_CAP},

to camlibs/ptp2/library.c.

Ciao, Marcus
