Hey all,

I have a slightly generalized set of questions:

1) What is the path by which a camera gets full support?
2) How do I install a libgphoto2 version that isn't a released version?
3) If I have a libgphoto2 version running locally that supports my camera,
how do I ensure python-gphoto2 is binded to the specific version of
libgphoto2?

As an example (and the one relevant to my needs):
The Canon R100 seems to be supported in libgphoto2 version 2.5.31.1
<https://github.com/gphoto/libgphoto2/issues/924>. However, reading user
jensanjo's output in `summary.txt`, makes it sound like the camera doesn't
actually support image capture, just file downloading.

The R100 is not listed on the gphoto2 site's list of supported cameras
<http://gphoto.org/proj/libgphoto2/support.php>.

So I'm curious how I can go from my current state which is having the
released version of gphoto2, libgphoto2, and python-gphoto2 on my system,
to 1) having a system that can run the R100 at presently-supported levels,
and then 2) at full-support levels.

Thanks!
Sam
