[Pkg-phototools-devel] Bug#727217: libusbx debug noise

[Yuri D'Elia]

Package: gphoto2
Version: 2.4.14-1
Severity: normal

I'm getting a ton of libusbx debug output when invoking gphoto2:

========================

The manual page states something about the --debug flag or USB_DEBUG
environment variable, neither of which I'm using.

Using --debug-logfile doesn't redirect it either.

The level of noise is so high that makes the command unuseable.
