Please upgrade libgphoto2 to 2.4.2

I'm working on this.

The diff.gz. This is a merge of 2.4.1-2 from Debian plus the new upstream version.
The .orig.tar.gz can be downloaded at http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/gphoto/libgphoto2-2.4.2.tar.gz

Taking for sponsoring.

this would be very much appreciated, thank you.

This bug was fixed in the package libgphoto2 - 2.4.2-0ubuntu1

---------------
libgphoto2 (2.4.2-0ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable of 2.4.1-2 version. Remaining Ubuntu changes:
    - Use HAL's automatic ACLs instead of udev rules for controlling
      permissions on USB devices.
  * Drop debian/TODO file, useless in Ubuntu.
  * New upstream release 2.4.2, LP: #252408.
  * debian/control: modify libltdl3-dev to libltdl7-dev in Build-Depends field,
    there is a new version of libtool in Ubuntu.
  * Drop 20_backport_initial_startup_speedup.dpatch patch, merged upstream.
  * Update 45_increase_canon_timeout.dpatch patch.
  * Add deprecated_lt_dlcaller_register.dpatch patch, fix FTBFS caused by
    the rename of lt_dlcaller_register to lt_dlinterface_register in the
    libtool included in Ubuntu.

libgphoto2 (2.4.1-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Since 2.4.2 was released a bit before the freeze, not rushing its
    upload for lenny. After having asked usptream, the r11066 revision
    deserves to be backported, so as to improve the initial startup
    time. Thanks to Marcus Meissner for having provided the tip, along
    with the patch:
     - Add 20_backport_initial_startup_speedup.dpatch
  * Version the Recommends on udev (which is conditionally specified
    through the ${udev-hotplug} variable in debian/rules), since
    libgphoto2 now uses the alternative syntax (that is: key!="a|b"),
    which apparently was introduced in udev 0.109. Adding “(>= 0.113-1)”
    since that's the first version in Debian which included this
    feature. Many thanks to Jan Echternach for having spotted the problem
    as well as its solution (Closes: #491065).

libgphoto2 (2.4.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release (Closes: #480127):
     - Not bumping shlibs, no new symbol.
     - To achieve this, use two dh_makeshlibs calls (one for
       libgphoto2-port0 and one for libgphoto2-$(major), and provide with
       the last upstream version sharing the same ABI. Using 2.4.0 here
       although some former versions might have been specified. That
       shouldn't make any difference from a testing migration point of
       view.
  * debian/copyright:
     - Use an almost decent copyright format, as discussed on
       <http://wiki.debian.org/Proposals/CopyrightFormat>.
     - Properly specify copyright holders and licenses, grouping them by
       components when possible.
  * debian/patches:
     - Drop 30_additional_camera_support.dpatch, merged upstream.
     - Update 45_increase_canon_timeout.dpatch, upstream bumped the
       timeout from 75 to 150 (Debian had 750), but 750 looks doing a
       better job according to user comments on the tracker. Keeping that
       value.
     - Drop 65_udev_usb_subsystem.dpatch, merged upstream (using another
       approach).
     - Drop 75_deprecated_hal_key.dpatch, merged upstream.
     - Drop disabled patches (from the list and from that directory) since
       one can get them back from the VCS.
  * debian/libgphoto2-2.dirs:
     - Drop “/usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop” from
       there. There's no use shipping an empty directory (especially since
       the ma...
