Bug#529613: gvfs-backends: gphoto2 backend blocks UMS/MSC access to devices

This no longer seems to be an issue. It looks like it was fixed by a
combination of recent changes to libgphoto2-2 (I have 2.4.6-1) and
hal-info (I have 20090716-1):

http://gphoto.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/gphoto/branches/libgphoto2-2_4/libgphoto2/libgphoto2_port/usb/libusb.c?r1=12026&r2=12025&pathrev=12026
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/hal-info/commit/?id=b6d3ed743f58eff42c0dbdcbf8e7598a589e1584

In any event, for my Walkman (NWZ-A829), the problem has been fixed. If
other people still encounter the problem with their music players, I
suggest the real problem may now lie with hal-info, and not gvfs-backends.
