They did it again!?!?   gphoto2 has been pretty frustrating.  For 
a while, the API was changing on a weekly basis, and gphoto2 backend had
to scramble to keep up.  Whenever the API changed, I had to modify the
code, and change the configure script to check just for those specific
versions of the backend.

It's finally been quiet for the last few months, and I thought things
were settling down.  But it looks like they've gone and changed it
again.

Thanks for the report.
