[Pkg-phototools-devel] [Help] Fixing libgphoto2

[Cyril Brulebois]

Hi,

this is long overdue, but probably better than never:

 I'd appreciate help on the libgphoto2 package, which has been
RC-buggy for a while. I've prepared some changes in the experimental
branch (although those aren't complete yet since IIRC there's at least
a missing variable definition in front of the tool generating the udev
rules). I'm not sure I'll be able to properly fix and test this
package in the next few days, so it'd be nice if people could finish
merging Martin's patches and uploading, be it to experimental or to
unstable (depending on how confident you are). :)

Those changes are quite deep (moving installation-time stuff to
build-time), but should probably make it more robust on the long
run. I think we can live with temporary breakages (should they
happen), given the current state.

After some testing, I guess we could then move to further upstream
releases (for this package and its twin, gphoto2). Those are (from
what I've seen until now) quite safe anyway.

Mraw,
KiBi.
