libgphoto2 2.3.0 ubuntu edgy canon a530

An error occurred in the io-library ('Could not claim the USB device'): Could not claim interface 0 (Operation notpermitted). Make sure no other program or kernel module(such as sdc2xx, stv680, spca50x) is using the device and you have read/write access to the device.

For a Canon A530:

Replace the third line in /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libgphoto2.rules:

BUS!="usb*", GOTO="libgphoto2_rules_end" with
SUBSYSTEM!="usb_device", GOTO="libgphoto2_rules_end"

Then, /etc/init.d/udev restart

There are simpler solutions than this for other cameras. Just follow the link.
