The ufraw plugin version in hoary doesn't yet support the EOS 350D, and
the dcraw utility (which the dcraw plugin accesses) segfaults as I
indicated. So currently the option is to build dcraw from source
(http://www.cybercom.net/~dcoffin/dcraw). I've not had a chance to check
out either in Breezy yet.

FWIW the format is actually a lossless JPEG2000 image embedded in a TIFF
structure.
