* The camlibs for cameras (and driver) older than 15 years have been
default disabled for installation, to speed up libgphoto2 startup
and also reduce attack surface against malicious USB devices.
See OUTDATED.txt in git for notes.
You can reenable them using:
./configure --with-camlibs=all,outdated
or by the camlib driver name (sample: jd11):
./configure --with-camlibs=all,jd11
To get the lists of all camera libraries use:
./configure --help
If you still have an old camera using one of these camlibs in active
use, please report this to the devteam so we can reenable it per
default.
