raspbian Jessie stuck on libgphoto2 2.5.4

[Benjamin7785]

Hey, running gphoto2-updater on a vanilla raspbian jessie Image seems to fail updating the libgphoto2. while everything updates fine only libgphoto2 remains Version 2.5.4. Any idea to fix this is appreciated. Cheers Ben

P.S.: any chance telling when gphoto2-updater 2.5.9 will be available :-)

Very strange. This script specifically downloads and install version 2.5.8. Maybe you have manually installed (via apt-get) other version. Please be sure to remove it via apt-get remove.

Anyway GitHub-integration branch is your option if you want to install the last gphoto2 version. Take a look in https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gonzalo/gphoto2-updater/GitHub-integration/gphoto2-updater.sh

Master branch now takes 2.5.9 version from original repositories. Please take a look and check if it works for you.

Hey, Unfortunately, there is no success so far. Even trying to update to 2.5.9 leaves libgphoto2 at version 2.5.4. Whereas gphoto2 updates to 2.5.9 nicely. There is a youtube video online showing exactly the same problem I have. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQ14nB6zhcc

Based on that video, I would guess that gphoto2 is not in your PATH variable. What is the output when you run whereis gphoto2? What is the output when you run echo $PATH?

[gonzalo]

As @scribblemaniac said it should be something related to PATHs. Problably, your OS is calling the apt-get version of libgphoto2 instead of the newer one. Be sure that you have uninstalled gphoto2 and libgphoto2-2 packages before executing the script.

An execution of last script version in a virtual RPI wheezy 7.8 gives me:

gphoto2 2.5.9

Confirmed by Andr.oid Eric, the problem seems to be the the libgphoto2-port10 package that comes preinstalled on debian jessie. Be sure to remove it manually before executing script

sudo apt-get remove libgphoto2-port10

[scribblemaniac]

Should we consider adding this line to the script?

[Benjamin7785]

Okay, removing libgphoto2-port10 did indeed work perfectly. Thanks for the support.

[gonzalo]

Command for removing package libgphoto2-port10 will be included in new script version version.
