Installation probs
by vectox - Dec 6th 2002 12:05:48
Anyone having getting this thing installed??
I just bought a Canon S230 that I would LOVE to have working
in Linux.
I have already installed libgphoto2.
Running ./configure for gphoto2 gives me
------------
checking for libgphoto2 >= 2.1.1... Package libgphoto2 was not found in
the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libgphoto2.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'libgphoto2' found
configure: error: Library requirements (libgphoto2 >= 2.1.1) not met;
consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your
libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.
------------
Any ideas? I've been looking for info, but I've found little.
Using slackware 8.1.

As a note to this I did setup an environment variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH to
the file its asking for......no dice.

I use Slackware 9.0.0-beta kernel 2.4.19. I installed
libgphoto2-2.1.1.tar.gz and then tried to install gphoto2-2.1.1.tar.gz and
gtkam-0.1.10.tar.gz both of which had the following problem with
./configure using bash.
[ERROR MESSAGE]checking for libgphoto2 >= 2.1.1... Package
libgphoto2 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should
add the directory containing 'libgphoto2.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH
environment variable No package 'libgphoto2' found
INSTALLING gphoto2-2.1.1.tar.gz & gtkam-0.1.10.tar.gz
$./configure
/* I received the error message above*/
To fix this you need to setup an environment variable for PKG_CONFIG_PATH
so that it is set to the directory where the file libgphoto2.pc is located.
There may be multiple ways to do this with all the different distro's out
there, some of which were setting environment variables in ~./bashrc or
bash_conf. So here is what I did in bash with Slackware 9.0.0-beta on an
A7A266/1.4ghz system.
$echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH
/* if you had an error this will most likely output a blank line, or
possibly something that you recently set it to */
$cd /
$find -R | grep libgphoto2.pc
/* this outputs to your screen the directory info of all the
libgphoto2.pc files in all subdirectories from / The directory you come up
with may be different than what I came up with as shown below */
$export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/
/* this sets the environment variable for PKG_CONFIG_PATH */
$echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH
/* the screen output of this should be what is after the = in the
export command above, and now that you have the environment varialbe set
you should be able to successfully install gphoto2-2.1.1.tar.gz and
gtkam-0.1.10.tar.gz*/
$cd gphoto2-2.1.1
$./configure
/* this should now configure without the error message */
$cd gtkam-0.1.10
$./configure
/* this should now configure without the error message */

I didn't post the original request, but this fixed it for me. Thanks for
the info.

generic USB support
by boo - Nov 17th 2001 01:03:13
Anyone have any luck getting Gphoto working with generic USB support (i.e.,
getting Gphoto working with a model not specifically mentioned as supported
but mountable as a USB device)?
Anyway, I have a Toshiba PDR-M61.
Thanks for any help/advice/tips/etc.

gPhoto 0.x only supports serial port cameras.
get gPhoto 2.0, instead. Dunno if your cam
model is supported, but you should give it a try.

Gnome VFS, bonobo, Nautilus, USB, etc...?
by 1010011010 - Mar 31st 2001 21:39:02
I've heard tale of a Gnome VFS plugin to let users
of (for instance) Nautilus access their digital
cameras like any other file system. I have a
PowerShot S20, and LOVE gphoto -- much better than
the crap they ship with the camera. Being able to
access it from a regular file browser would make
even nicer, especially if I can write a little
script to notice when I plug in my camera, and
automatically make nautilus show me the thumbnails...

This is fantastic...
by Special Agent K - Jun 2nd 2000 22:56:04
gPhoto is a lifesaver. I actually made my purchase (an Olympus D450z)
based partly on gPhoto's support for that model. It works really well,
though it has only basic color-adjusting capabilities and no cropping, and
does occassionaly crash unexpectedly. It sure does get the photos off the
camera though, and thanks to gPhoto and the GIMP I still never need to
wander across the room to use the Mac!

A great program
by Nick - Jan 24th 2000 19:07:10
gPhoto works great with my Polaroid PDC640. It's actually much faster than
the Windows software that was included with the camera. Every digital
camera owner should give this a try.

This is cool!!
by GreenGator - Dec 20th 1999 22:24:01
This is great, 10min after I read the 'Works Great' post, I was downloading
from my Fuji MX2900. It took longer to set up the windows version that came
with the camera! One less reason to have that windows box running! THANKS.

Works great!
by Reagen Ward - Dec 20th 1999 14:00:38
I'm using gPhoto with an Olympus camera, and this application is wonderful!
While it still has a few limitations, it works as advertised, and I
actually like it better than the app that shipped with the camera! I'm
using it under Solaris and Linux, and have even compiled it for HP-UX.
Nice work!
