Re: [Shotwell] Unable to import photos from Samsung Galaxy S6 anymore

[Abel <akronix5 gmail com>]

Hi list!

I've made a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.10 and importing works again.

I guess it had something to do with my development environment for shotwell since I wasn't using jhbuild, any virtualization tool or so.

Thank you anyway.

Saludos,

hi!

I finally got a new PSU and time to set it up and re-try to sync my photos.

It turned out that I didn't have gphoto2 installed (maybe because I have a dev enverionment and I messed up something?)

If now I execute gphoto2 -T I get the following error:
*** Error ***             
PTP Session Not Open

*** Error ***             
An error occurred in the io-library ('Unspecified error'): The supplied vendor or product id (0x0,0x0) is not valid.
*** Error (-1: 'Unspecified error') ***

I attach also the debug log file I get when running gphoto2 in debug mode.

Saludos,

The PSU of my computer isn't in a healthy state right now, so I'll have to delay the check.
But I will do it as soon as possible and get back to you the results.

Thanks Jens,

Yep, that's annoying, I know.

I would rather suspect that this is an issue with a newer gphoto2. Can
you follow the steps from https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77
1905 as well?
