Taking pictures is only one functionality of camorama, but I wouldn't
consider it the "primary" one. Hence I'd argue that this is important,
but not grave enough to be RC. For example, live preview is not
affected, and that's all I ever use the program for.
I can confirm that in default configuration, Clicking "Take Picture"
does nothing.
However, taking pictures works fine here, after doing "Edit -
Preferences", "Local Capture", and checking "Enable local capture". If I
now press the "Take Picture" button, a picture is created. So from all I
can tell, this is "just" bad UI.
Downgrading accordingly, to let the package go back to testing.
Kind regards,
Ralf
