Package: libgphoto2-2 Version: 2.4.1-3 Severity: important
Incorrect udev rules in the latest libgphoto2-2 package are not creating USB device files in the plugdev group. That means I can run gphoto2 as root, but not as a normal user. /etc/udev/rules.d/025_libgphoto2.rules includes this skip rule: SUBSYSTEM!="usb|usb_device", GOTO="libgphoto2_rules_end" The pipe is not documented to work in the udev manpage, and I think this is the problem. When I change the line to: SUBSYSTEM!="usb_device", GOTO="libgphoto2_rules_end" I can access the camera as a normal user. I have CONFIG_USB_DEVICE_CLASS=y in my kernel config. (I looked because of bug 427963.) I did comment out the /etc/fstab rule to automatically mount usbdevfs because I'm a USB developer and I need to be able to remove the USB core module. gphoto2 info: 0.000222 main(2): ALWAYS INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING LINES WHEN SENDING DEBUG MESSAGES TO THE MAILING LIST: 0.002469 main(2): gphoto2 2.4.0 0.002518 main(2): gphoto2 has been compiled with the following options: 0.002549 main(2): + gcc (C compiler used) 0.002629 main(2): + popt (mandatory, for handling command-line parameters) 0.002659 main(2): + exif (for displaying EXIF information) 0.002688 main(2): + cdk (for accessing configuration options) 0.002716 main(2): + no aa (for displaying live previews) 0.002744 main(2): + jpeg (for displaying live previews in JPEG format) 0.002773 main(2): + readline (for easy navigation in the shell) 0.002813 main(2): libgphoto2 2.4.1 0.002850 main(2): libgphoto2 has been compiled with the following options: 0.002880 main(2): + gcc (C compiler used) 0.002908 main(2): + ltdl (for portable loading of camlibs) 0.002936 main(2): + EXIF (for special handling of EXIF files) 0.002969 main(2): libgphoto2_port 0.8.0 0.003004 main(2): libgphoto2_port has been compiled with the following options: 0.003034 main(2): + gcc (C compiler used) 0.003062 main(2): + ltdl (for portable loading of camlibs) 0.003091 main(2): + USB (libusb, for USB cameras) 0.003118 main(2): + serial (for serial cameras) 0.003146 main(2): + no resmgr (serial port access and locking) 0.003175 main(2): + no baudboy (serial port locking) 0.003203 main(2): + no ttylock (serial port locking) 0.003231 main(2): + no lockdev (serial port locking) 0.003260 main(2): CAMLIBS env var not set, using compile-time default instead 0.003288 main(2): IOLIBS env var not set, using compile-time default instead -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.23-wireless (PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libgphoto2-2 depends on: ii adduser 3.100 Add and remove users and groups ii libc6 2.7-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libexif12 0.6.16-2.1 library to parse EXIF files ii libgphoto2-port0 2.4.1-3 gphoto2 digital camera port librar ii libjpeg62 6b-14 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libltdl3 1.5.22-4 A system independent dlopen wrappe Versions of packages libgphoto2-2 recommends: ii udev 0.125-7 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
