    That is a library part - 'libfprint',
    follows a service part - 'fprintd'. ;)

I didn't realize that the link to fprintd was not created by the
libfprint install.  I created a symlink for libfprint.so.0 and fprintd
works now.  Woohoo!  Thanks.

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.
