Photo Installation on Centos

Hi,

Has anyone tried installing Gphoto2 on Centos (Redhat)? Is there a page with a nice description of how to do it, I am having troubles with library dependencies.

Thanks,
Rusen

Which version of CentOS and what dependencies in particular?

Most of what you need should be available via yum, and CentOS 7.3 is
fairly recent.

Re: Photo Installation on Centos

I have Centos 6.8 I figured out that my best option is using rpm files for libgphoto2 and gphoto2, but I couldn’t get past the library dependencies of libgphoto2. yum worked for many of them but I couldn’t manage with

libc
libgd
libexif

Thanks,
Rusen

libgphoto2 should be available in CentOS 6.8, but it probably is quite old.

"Third-party" RPM (ie not from the distro) might not be the best option.
Make sure they are for the right version if you really want to go that
route, otherwise they will depend on the wrong versions... (you list
libc, that's the first indication they are not for CentOS 6.8)

If you really need a recent version libgphoto2 and gphoto2, building
from source might be the only easy way.

Hi,

Thanks for your document Peter. Getting some help from your document and also following Hub’s recommendation, I tried building from the source.

With libgphoto2, ltdl installation worked when I used

yum install libtool-ltdl-devel

For gphoto2, popt library installation worked with

yum install popt-devel

So now I have installed gphoto2 version 2.5.11 and libgphoto2 version 2.5.12. I connected my Sony a5100 camera but it does not work. I get the following responses for the following commands

gphoto2 --auto-detect

Model Port

----------------------------------------------------------

Nikon DSC D750 usb:001,001

(for Sony camera) even when there is no device connected

gphoto2 --list-ports

Devices found: 7

Path Description

--------------------------------------------------------------

ptpip: PTP/IP Connection

serial:/dev/ttyS0 Serial Port 0

serial:/dev/ttyS1 Serial Port 1

serial:/dev/ttyS2 Serial Port 2

serial:/dev/ttyS3 Serial Port 3

serial: Serial Port Device

lsusb

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub

Bus 002 Device 018: ID 054c:07cc Sony Corp.

Bus 002 Device 003: ID 067b:2303 Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2303 Serial Port

Bus 002 Device 004: ID 05e3:0610 Genesys Logic, Inc. 4-port hub

Did anyone have similar problem, any idea if it is the gphoto version or the device I am using?

Thanks,

Rusen

THis is a "virtual" D750, a testcamera.

It shows up when you build without libusb development headers and libraries.

Install libusb-somethign-devel , rerun configure (it will say if libusb was found at
the end) and remake.
