Hello,

I wanted to install gphoto2 via your script. It basically ran through, but in the end, I got this: 

gphoto2 2.5.15`

Diese Version von gphoto2 benutzt die folgenden Softwareversionen und Optionen:
gphoto2         2.5.15         gcc, popt(m), exif, cdk, aa, jpeg, readline
libgphoto2      2.5.16         all camlibs, gcc, ltdl, EXIF
libgphoto2_port 0.12.0         iolibs: disk ptpip serial usb1 usbdiskdirect usbscsi, gcc, ltdl, USB, serial without locking

I expected version 2.5.22, as stated in the script. Did I something wrong ?

Thanks in advance,

I tried it on another PC and there all worked well. So I guess the problems was somewhere deep inside the configuration of the PC itself.

@Creat1veM1nd Your issue is probably because you have another version of gphoto2 installed (ex. from apt). This script used to run apt-get remove gphoto2 libgphoto2*, but does not anymore because it caused the removal of important packages for some users. You can try and use this command to fix your issues, but just check to make sure it doesn't remove something like ubuntu-desktop. It will ask for a confirmation first before doing anything.

I removed the old version via apt before using the autoupdater but got the same result. Probably something was wrong while removing, at least at this one PC (Linux in a VM on a Windows10 Host) - on a real Linux machine it worked like a charm.
