I agree with you here. In the meantime I found that there are no FreeBSD 
specific modifications for libgphoto2-2.1.5 and OTOH there seem to be 
major modifications concerning USD between libgphoto2-2.1.4 
and ...-2.1.5.

And "No", I haven't tried to talk to the gphoto developers so far, but 
it seems wise to do so. It's on my To-Do-list :-)

I'm wondering if I'm the only one complaining about USB-locking with 
libgphoto2-2.1.5... otherwise this version should perhaps backed out 
because not the port is broken but the library itself.

What I found is, that in the CVS-Version of libgphoto further 
modifications to the USB-Code are made, so perhaps the next version 
will improve things a bit... hopefully.

Thanks so far - Matthias
