Description:
I replaced libusb-compat by libusbx and libgphoto2 builds correctly (and with usb support). So, there's no need for libusb-compat anymore.


Additional info:
* libgphoto2 2.5.1-1
This task depends upon

The current package contains backends using both libusbx and libusb-compat. Do both backends have the same capabilities? I guess you already noticed from checkpkg output that one of the USB backends is missing.

I see no point in having two usb backends in a single project. I guess they simply look for either libusb (libusbx) or libusb0 (libusb-compat).

I'll ask upstream and let you know.

[17:20] <ndr> hi all, is there any reason to build both usb backends in libgphoto2?
[17:20] <ndr> I mean, the configure script checks for both libusb0 and libusb1, and when both are installed, gphoto links to both
[17:48] <_Marcus_> hi
[17:48] <_Marcus_> no, you can just use libusb1
[17:48] <_Marcus_> they are not selectable, so just use the newer one
