I m using python 3.12.3 and pip 24.2. I am trying to install “gphoto2” to work with DSLR camera. When I enter

pip3 install gphoto2

I am getting the following error:

Later I also tried with pip version of 22.1.0 but ran into another error:

Can someone please help me with adding “gphoto2” in python. I am looking at the following page (https://github.com/jim-easterbrook/python-gphoto2/tree/main) for reference.
