Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Hi,
I'm looking for a developer to package and maintain a small package. usbcam-hotplug is a couple of scripts for hotplug that will start one of the appropriate programs for transfering pictures from a USB camera. The main reason for this package is so that desktop users with usb cameras don't need to manually set up hotplug and manually start their preferred application each time they hook up the camera. The example hotplug script in the libgphoto2 doc directory isn't so useful for debian users because it relies on pam_console/console permissions. There is also a hacky little zenity script that users can run to see which appropriate programs are installed, and they can choose their preferred app. I'm not a debian developer and I'm not that familiar with policy etc but I've attempted to create a deb. Source is online at http://www.wlug.org.nz/~jrm/usbcam/ If this gets debianized, it would be nice if the front-end apps (gtkam, gthumb, digikam etc) recommended this package... Thanks John McPherson
