Well, I've been using a version I compiled myself from CVS because the
debian package doesn't work with my Canon G1:
# gphoto2 --help | grep '^g'
gPhoto (v2.0beta1) - Cross-platform digital camera library.
However, I can't install your package:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of gphoto:
gphoto depends on libusb1; however:
Package libusb1 is not installed.
# apt-get install libusb1
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Package libusb1 has no available version, but exists in the database.
This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and
never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents
of sources.list
E: Package libusb1 has no installation candidate
There's some problem there... Apparently libusb1 was removed a couple of
weeks ago.

To the list anyway to prevent others from running into the same problem
and wasting their time.
