Comment 29 for bug 355998

Applying the patch as described in #12 fixed the problem for me too. However, Ubuntu wants to re-install the repository's version of libgphoto2-2 each time I run an update. How can I force it to stay at the patched version until a real update is out? I tried using "Hold" in Aptitude and "Force version" in Synaptic, but since the version number of the patched version is identical to the repository's version, this did not work.
