Currently configure still succeeds when gphoto backend is requested but cannot be enabled.

Make checks with --enable-gphoto2 stricter

Attaching a patch to make the checks a little stricter. If --enable-gphoto2 is passed in but (a) libgphoto2 is not available, or (b) we can't use gphoto2 because we're not on Linux, the build errors out.

The automagic dependency calculation when no --enable-gphoto2 works just as it did before.

Would have been easier if it was in the correct format.
I also fixed the pkg-config checks surrounding this.
