Hi, The below mail was send to the gphoto2 mailinglist a couple of days ago, I've not checked but F-14 has the involved gvfs and libgphoto2 versions so this likely needs to be fixed in F-14 too: ### Hello list! As you probably know, GVFS has its gphoto2 backend which detects USB cameras by listening to (g)udev events having ID_GPHOTO2 property set. When a camera gets plugged in, it runs this exact code: #v+ port = g_strdup_printf ("usb:%d,%d", bus_num, device_num); /* Connect to the camera */ context = gp_context_new (); if (gp_camera_new (&camera) != 0) goto out; if (gp_port_info_list_new (&il) != 0) goto out; if (gp_port_info_list_load (il) != 0) goto out; n = gp_port_info_list_lookup_path (il, port); if (n == GP_ERROR_UNKNOWN_PORT) goto out; if (gp_port_info_list_get_info (il, n, &info) != 0) goto out; if (gp_camera_set_port_info (camera, info) != 0) goto out; gp_port_info_list_free (il); il = NULL; if (gp_camera_init (camera, context) != 0) goto out; #v- I've just spent quite some time investigating why gp_camera_init() fails. Boy, that was fun! It turns out that since svn revision 13242 and 13245 libgphoto2 doesn't like when the specified port string differs in format from what libgphoto2 autodetects: "usb:3,21" vs "usb:003,021". Do you think it's a GVFS "bug" or not necessarily? My current workaround is to patch gvfs ("usb:%03d,%03d"). BTW, I find it ugly that libgphoto2 autodetects what was already autodetected by udev (rules generated by gphoto's own `print-camera-list`). Cheers. PS. GNOME users running libgphoto2 >= 2.4.10 and gvfs <= 1.6.3 are going to be PISSED :) ### Regards, Hans
