cant find ncurses interface to gphoto

I am a complete newbie trying gphoto. I can use it using the commanline client
to connect to my Nikon camera but prefer to use the ncurses interface instead.

As per link below I should be able to launch it using "gphoto2 --config" but
when I try it I get the usage message. Has the command to invoke it changed or
is a problem with my distro package (Arch)?

thanks
Vikram

If you build it, you need to build against cdk-devel to get the ncurses frontend.

Ciao, Marcus
