For libusb: Got the source from http://sourceforge.net/projects/libusb/files/

send it via ssh to Jolla and started ./configure:

    [nemo@Jolla libusb-1.0.19]$ ./configure
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes

configure: error: in `/home/nemo/PortGphoto2Sailfish/PortingGphoto2Sailfish/libusb-1.0.19':
configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
See `config.log' for more details

Ok, so I installed gcc:

pkcon install gcc gcc-c++

Aha, compilers are found and everythink works fine till:

configure: error: "udev support requested but libudev not installed"

Hmm, anyone has an idea what now?

Update: let's try to disable udev

./configure --disable-udev

and the ./configure-command runs through without errors!

Update: now let's make it

pkcon install make //first we have to install make

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Libraries have been installed in:
   /usr/local/lib

If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR'
flag during linking and do at least one of the following:
   - add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable
     during execution
   - add LIBDIR to the `LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable
     during linking
   - use the `-Wl,-rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag
   - have your system administrator add LIBDIR to `/etc/ld.so.conf'

See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.

For libexif-dev this works as for the libusb:

Get source from: http://sourceforge.net/projects/libexif/files/?source=navbar

Then go to directory and enter:

./configure
make
devel-su
make install

It shows basically the same output as libusb
