Actually that exiv2 .pet I just linked to is also missing the symlink libexiv2.so.2, so either check whether you have the real exiv2 library, and you're just missing the symlink, or if you download the one above, just add the required symlink.

cheers

Hi,
I'm new at all this and have got to this point in trying to setup UFRaw in Puppy 4.2.1 with Gimp 2.6.3.

When you say create the symlink for libexiv where does it need to be created and linking what to what?

Apologies for my ignorance and many thanks in advance.

Charlie,

No apologies required...I know libexiv2.so.2 exists with puppy-4.1.2, and I imagine puppy 4.2.1 would have as well. If you open a console, (Menu>Utility>Rxvt), & enter the command ufraw does the program open, or do you get any errors?

If you enter ls /usr/lib/libexiv2*, what response do you get?

Lastly, the above package was made to install the ufraw gimp plugin to /usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plugins, but I suspect the package, you're using, has installed gimp elsewhere. e.g. with the gimp 2.6.3 I've got, the plugins are located at /usr/local/lib/gimp/2.0/plugins, so it's a simple matter to either move it to the latter location, or symlink it. Except I just noticed that 2.6.3 already has the ufraw plugin, but I can't locate it in the plugin browser? More research required.

# ufraw gives ufraw: error while loading shared libraries: libexiv2.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.

# ls /usr/lib/libexiv2* gives /usr/lib/libexiv2.so /usr/lib/libexiv2.so.0 /usr/lib/libexiv2.so.0.1.0

I actually use dcb_dcraw, a modified version of dcraw for use on
my chdk (Canon A470 camera) dng files, and have had quite good
results.

Can dcb_dcraw handle canon CR2 Raw files?

Hi

You have to find out which one is the actual lib (possibly the last one you mention) and symlink to it with the correct name. I see you have three entries, two of those are probably symlinks. Smile

AFAIK there is no program that can interpret a CHDK CRW file produced for a Canon A470. CHDK does have an extra option to save as DNG format in-camera and it is that option I use. The DNG file can be open in Ufraw and Rawtherapee as well.

There is a program for converting CRW files to DNG, http://code.google.com/p/dng4ps2/ , the A470 is not listed, but other cameras are. The CRW / CR2 format is not universal, AFAIK, it can differ from camera to camera.

hi guys...

I tried this ufraw, but found out later that it is a gimp plugin... has anyone made the standalone version into a .pup file?

alternatively can anyone point me to undeb.pup or something similar so i can convert it to .pup myself (or try to, lol)

BTW, new here... and new to linux, so speak to me as you would a windows user cause thats what i am :p

The .pet, in the first post, contains stand-alone ufraw, as well as the gimp plugin.

As the post says:

Run via Menu->Graphic->Ufraw
