Hi Jerome,
Do you know what is the difference between this library that you have
compiled and the packages in Fedora? I'm asking because I think it is the
same project.
I also have a Validity Sensors, which also doesn't work, but mine is a bit
different than yours:
$ lsusb | grep -i finger
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 138a:0008 Validity Sensors, Inc. VFS300 Fingerprint
Reader
$ lsusb -d 138a:0008 -v
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 138a:0008 Validity Sensors, Inc. VFS300 Fingerprint
Reader
Device Descriptor:
bLength 18
bDescriptorType 1
bcdUSB 1.10
bDeviceClass 255 Vendor Specific Class
bDeviceSubClass 16
bDeviceProtocol 255
bMaxPacketSize0 8
idVendor 0x138a Validity Sensors, Inc.
idProduct 0x0008 VFS300 Fingerprint Reader
bcdDevice c.90
iManufacturer 0
iProduct 0
iSerial 1
bNumConfigurations 1
..........
These are the packages I have installed:
$ rpm -qa | grep fprint
fprintd-0.5.0-1.fc19.x86_64
fprint_demo-0.4-12.fc19.1.x86_**64
fprintd-pam-0.5.0-1.fc19.x86_**64
libfprint-0.5.0-2.fc19.x86_64
The package in Fedora crashes when I'm configuring my fingerprint. Would
you show me the steps you followed to compile the library?
Regards,
Germán.

German,
I do not think that you need to compile the newest driver for your sensor
as it already exists for your hardware. Just to make sure, please provide
the output to the command below.
grep 138a /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-fprint-autosuspend.rules
Nevertheless, I merely followed the instructions in INSTALL file that came
with the driver.
https://github.com/maffmeier/fprint_vfs5011/blob/master/INSTALL
In my case, I simple ran the command below.
./configure; make; make install
regards,
j
