I am a bit lost reading the code because i have little to none experience with
c, i am using python in the project with a wrapper for the library i have
created with cython, but the function fp_dev_supports_identification returns
False for me with the Upek Eikon, i have read the code and it seems that the
needed function identify_start it is only set for imaging devices.

Could anyone please confirm this? i have checked and the SDK from Upek have an
identify function but it seems that libfprint don't supports that.
