Description of problem: If the device triggering gthumb-import is a USB mass storage device, gthumb is opened without the --import-photos option. No photos are imported. gThumb simply displays the mounted location, without importing anything, which is annoying. However, versions >2.2.0 of libgphoto2 include a USB mass storage "driver". That means it will now import photos from a USB mass storage device. This feature is relatively new. This means that USB mass storage devices SHOULD be called with the --import-photos option. I think that the gthumb-import script can be reduced to one line: gthumb --import-photos Additional info: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=143312 https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=108874&aid=1581262&group_id=8874 - Mike (a gThumb developer)
Created attachment 150492 [details] Patched gthumb-import, to import from mounted DCIM folders This version of gthumb-import will launch the import function of gthumb if a dcim or DCIM folder is found. This requires libgphoto 2.2.x or higher (which FC6 and FC7 both have). - Mike (a gThumb developer)
Created attachment 150496 [details] Patch for gthumb-import Same as above, in patch format.
Created attachment 151424 [details] Corrected and updated gthumb-import script Oops, some unnecessary mount points were kept. Here is a simpler version.
We should do this.
Fixed in 2.17.0-7.fc7
