Description:

<description>
The gPhoto2 project is a universal, free application and library
framework that lets you download images from several different
digital camera models, including the newer models with USB
connections. Note that for some older camera models you must use
the old "gphoto" package.
</description>

Currently we have both gphoto2 as the user-level application and libgphoto2, 
which is a separate library packaged together in a single rpm package. This is 
odd since many applications need libgphoto2 what does not imply gphoto2 is 
needed.
Furthermore gphoto2 build process is hackish, where libgphoto2 is built and 
installed into the buildroot and finally gphoto2 is built on top of it. We 
should definitely avoid that and have two separate packages that BuildRequire 
each other instead.
