Hello, again! So I installed libfprint 0.5 and fprintd 0.4.1 from source on Ubuntu 12.10. For other people's ftre reference, I had to install the foloowing packages for that to work:
apt-get install build-essential libusb libusb-1.0-0 libusb-1.0-0-dev libnss3-dev glib-2.0 glib-2.0-dev glib-2.0 libglib2.0-0 libglib2.0-dev libgdk-pixbuf2.0 libgdk-pixbuf2.0 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev intltool libdbus-glib-1-dev libdbus-glib-1-2 libpolkit-gobject-1-0 libpolkit-gobject-1-dev ( i had to install from source because ubuntu's libfprint 0.4 doesnt support my "0483:2015 SGS Thomson Microelectronics TouchChip Fingerprint Reader") - 'enroll' and 'verify' in libfprint's 'example/' seem to work fine. - fprintd-enroll seems to work - fprintd-verify crashes with: ================== Listing enrolled fingers: - #0: right-index-finger ** (fprintd-verify:10077): CRITICAL **: dbus_set_g_error: assertion `gerror == NULL || *gerror == NULL' failed VerifyStart failed: ================== so, what am i doing wring this time? also: do the executables "fprint-enroll" and "fprintd-verify" take arguments? if they would work, could i use them directly, instead of 'talking' DBUS from the perl program i want to use? If not, is there another simple command-line wrapper for fprintd / libfprint ? Thanks, M. _______________________________________________ fprint mailing list fprint@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/fprint
