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

[Scott Barker]

Package: gvfs-backends
Version: 1.2.2-2
Severity: normal


As in Ubuntu bug 330383 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/330383),
the gphoto2 backend is blocking mounting MTP capable devices as USB storage.

The work-around in the Ubuntu bug fixes this in Debian as well:

/usr/share/gvfs/remote-volume-monitors/gphoto2.monitor:

[RemoteVolumeMonitor]
Name=GProxyVolumeMonitorGPhoto2
DBusName=org.gtk.Private.GPhoto2VolumeMonitor
#IsNative=false
IsNative=true

I imagine that this would then break MTP access to cameras, but cannot
confirm.
