f-spot is not able to connect to my camera when running testing repo (gnome2.14 & stuff)
when trying to connect to the camera (canon ixus 50) it returns an error message:

[code]
Error connecting to camera
Received error "unspecified error" while conecting to camera
[/code]

The cli gives the following:

[code]

I was thinking the issue would be dbus/dbus-sharp (tried rebuilding too) related, as gtkam is able to connect to the camera.
??gtkam does not use dbus if I'm correct??

hunk 1 fails on compilation, hunk 2 fails on applying

I also have tried fedora's patches, as my camera is working on a fc5 system, but either they have no effect, or they fail

searching a bit around this evening, it seems indeed to be a libgphoto2 bug (not able to connect to canon cameras)
I got it working by updating libgphoto2 to version 2.1.99 and applying this patch from fedora:
http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/*checkout*/rpms/gphoto2/FC-5/gphoto2-2.1.99-canon_segv.patch

I'm now about to try it with the 2.1.6 version of libgphoto2 which is in repo. I report back when it is finished compiling :D

yuk, that does not work... (well, that's probably the reason they use this version too in fc5)
Would it be a possibility to upgrade even if it is not a *stable* release, as none of canon cameras work as I found when searching for a solution ?

@ f-spot still needs a rebuild agains dbus 0.61
