You'd need to use /sw/share/hal/fdi/information/20thirdparty instead. (I found that via "dpkg -S 20thirdparty") I'm guessing you'd need to do this via sudo /sw/lib/libgphoto2/print-camera-list hal-fdi > /sw/share/hal/fdi/information/20thirdparty/10-camera-libgphoto2.fdi sudo /sw/lib/libgphoto2/print-camera-list hal-fdi-device > /sw/share/hal/fdi/information/20thirdparty/10-camera-libgphoto2-device.fdi The upstream documentation, if it exists, is somewhere on their website. Use "fink info gthumb" and "fink info libgphoto2" and visit the websites. I don't know what they have for documentation there, because I use iPhoto. If you're able to get this to work, we probably should have have fink perform the step (maybe in libgphoto2's install) of setting up the cameras with HAL. - -- Alexander Hansen Fink User Liaison -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkvOD/4ACgkQB8UpO3rKjQ+iKACgkZECNnGE6r+T55feKquWEMkI 1GIAoKYIgC9DJhsdsSG68enbI9AE/xuM =s4XU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
