So, the attached patch works for me (no runtime loading errors).

BUT

This is something I have been meaning to ask Jack about, because it has been

interfering with my use of OpenCV. When I try to use libdc1394 as a camera

module, I get errors from my firewire iSight camera. This is the only

firewire camera I currently have access to, so I don't know if it's a

general problem. As a consequence, I have had to specifically compile OpenCV

*without* libdc1394 support.

So, my question for Jack is, do you know what would cause the following

errors (this time from camera1394_node, but the same errors from OpenCV),

and can they be easily fixed?:

Thanks for the patch, Nick.

It seems that libdc1394 is not working with your camera. The driver
was able to open the device successfully. Those warning messages come
from the library, not the driver.

If coriander is available on OSX, you might try experimenting with
that. See if you can find parameter settings that work, then try the
equivalent settings with camera1394. The default settings
(640x480_mono8, 15 fps, 400 Mb/s) work with most cameras, but not
necessarily all of them.

I could really use some help to fix defect #4659 in camera1394:

 https://code.ros.org/trac/ros-pkg/ticket/4659

Briefly, it seems we need to set OS-specific link flags to resolve the

driver's reference to libdc1394.

I haven't tried it, but if I understand the problem, then something

like this should do it:

if(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME MATCHES "Darwin")

 target_link_libraries(camera1394_node dc1394 "-framework CoreServices")

else(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME MATCHES "Darwin")

 target_link_libraries(camera1394_node dc1394)

endif(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME MATCHES "Darwin")

Thanks for both the patches. They look equivalent, although this one
looks simpler.

I also need a rosdeps stanza for libdc1394 on OSX. Any ideas about
that? (Or, examples I can study?)
