OK, someone said to install ltdl-dev, which then let the configure, make and make install work fine. When I plug my camera in, it still doesn't show. I checked and the rule is not in /lib/udev/rules.d - I thought the package was supposed to install it. Do I need to go back and manually add the udev rule (using "==" instead of "="?) ??
Sorry to be a hassle, but this is one time I desperately need my camera to work today - it's very important (just saying - I know that makes no difference) - and the only PC I have access to is this one running xubuntu. Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong?

It works perfectly on 12.04, pops right up when I plug it in. However on 14.04 nothing happens. lsusb outputs shows that the camera is detected, with the right model. SRU INFORMATION: ---------------- IMPACT: All PtP cameras which don't have an explicit vendor/model match in /lib/udev/hwdb.d/20-libgphoto2-6.hwdb stop working in gvfs/shotwell/etc. This is a regression since Saucy. FIX: Bring back the udev rule to tag generic PtP devices that we had had for many releases. This will tag the udev_device with the ID_GPHOTO2 property which is where gvfs and friends are looking (not on the usb_interface child). Patch: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/177343655/libgphoto2_2.5.4-1ubuntu1_2.5.4-1ubuntu2.diff.gz REGRESSION POTENTIAL: Very low. Adding tags to the wrong device might confuse gvfs/shotwell and friends, but this rule had been in production for many years. Broken udev rules are harmless except for error spew in syslog, and this doesn't interfere with the hwdb database as it only matches on usb_devices, not on usb_interfaces.
