Perhaps you do not have gphoto2, either. It is the command front-end for the cameras supported by libgphoto2. Libgphoto2 just contains all of the data about how each camera works. To install gphoto2 (which if you did not have it from your distro you will also need), you need to 1. Go back to the same place and get it. 2. Do ./configure. If you get an error message about PKG_CONFIG_PATH or something like that, then you need to add /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig to the path. OR in a pinch it might work to symlink the file /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/libgphoto2(whatever) to /usr/lib/pkgconfig. The significance of "pkgconfig" is that it is some new tool to help the compiler to know what libraries are in the system, and in what versions. Very important, no doubt, and also a little bit of a pain in the behind. 3. Make and make install. Now, of course, you understand that in all likelihood something will not work quite right at this point. That would be a miracle. At the very least, the camera might give the photos with the colors wrong, or upsice down, or something (see all of those config options, some of which you just copied, guessing, for the new camera!). So you can always run gphoto2 (option) --debug and get debug output. If you do gphoto2 (option) --debug 2>debug it will put the debug output into a file in the current directory, called "debug" and then the file can be inspected at leisure. Hope this helps.
