Comment 2 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-02-01 15:03:26 UTC
Maybe the maintainer of gphoto2 should know about this too
Comment 3 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-02-06 11:05:35 UTC
interesting, but i don't have time to maintain this and know very little about fuse.
Comment 4 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-02-07 02:33:16 UTC
Ok, then I will maintain this bug entry and update every version.
Comment 5 Miroslav Šulc gentoo-dev 2006-02-08 01:00:10 UTC
The ebuild doesn't work for me. emerge complaints here:

DEPEND=">=media-libs/libgphoto2 2.1

I guess '-' is missing here.

I think you are right, corrected
Comment 7 Miroslav Šulc gentoo-dev 2006-02-08 04:07:27 UTC
This one works. I have also tried the gphotofs with my Canon IXUS V3 and it works without problems.
Comment 8 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-02-08 04:23:26 UTC
I tested it with an iRiver T10 and a Canon Powershot A320, I opened an a thread [1] on the Forums.  The author (see URL) needs help for implementing the write capabilities, so maybe one should also contact him.

Comment 9 Miroslav Šulc gentoo-dev 2006-02-08 04:38:34 UTC
Yes, I didn't mention it. I tested only the read capability.

Comment 13 Simon Cooper 2006-08-27 14:49:11 UTC
is the only reason this is not in the portage tree the lack of maintainer?

> is the only reason this is not in the portage tree the lack of maintainer?

 Yes.  If noone is interested (maintaining needs interest and dedication), it will not hit the tree.  The author has a new version (SVN only) with write support and is looking for testers.  As I don't have a suitable device anymore, maybe someone else wants to volunteer?
 Another point: Submit this ebuild into Project Sunrise (I won't, no time left for  that).

Comment 15 Kalidarn 2007-01-01 01:17:30 UTC
personally, i think it should be taken on by the gphoto maintainer as it's an official part of the project, putting it in a third party overlay does not seem right when gphoto is in the main tree.

Could you please add the ~amd64 keyword to the ebuild? It works great here.

media-libs/gphotofs-0.4.0.ebuild

New version of gphotofs. RW works just out of the box.
According to some output it needs >=libgphoto2-2.3.0. But it didn't compile with libgphoto2-2.3.1-r5 for me.

 What do you think about submitting the ebuild to the Sunrise repository?  See http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/sunrise?  
 As review: Change date in header to 2007, emake instead of make and remove the gPhotoFS in the DESCRIPTION field.

I think it's a good idea.
Should I subversioning it or "Post your ebuild in #gentoo-sunrise and/or #gentoo-dev-help for review"?

 The correct way is let it be reviewed in #gentoo-sunrise (there are still quotes missing around ${D}, forgot to tell you), get an account for the repository and then commit it there.  Some dev will review it again and post it to the reviewed branch, so all users of Sunrise overlay will benefit from it.

I have just tested this ebuild, added the missing quotes around the ${D}, and found it working well.

Please include in sunrise.

I happened to install a new gentoo box lately and noticed that gphotofs is still not in portage even though more than 2 years old and having worked eversince. The ebuild had also been in sunrise for 2 years now.
Please... what is going on? Why not include it in portage ??

Cheers,
Sandy

 No developer was interested in it.  A simple reason.

updated 0.5.0 ebuild

Version bump; latest libgphoto breaks 0.4.0.

Only tested to build, can someone confirm that this actually works?  I'm too lazy/busy to get out my camera and try it.
Comment 27 Nikoli 2013-11-19 18:50:32 UTC
Why this bug is still open? Package is in portage now:

Comment 28 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-12-29 23:10:40 UTC
True.
