[Bug 1222971] [NEW] Digikam can't access photos via MTP on Nexus 4 since KDE 4.11.1 update

[Tim Edwards]

Public bug reported:

Since updating to KDE 4.11.1 from the Kubuntu Backports PPA I can't view
or download photos from my Nexus 4 using the MTP protocol (USB mode
"Connected as a camera" on the phone).

1. Connect phone via USB cable to computer
2. KDE Device Notifier pops-up saying a 'Camera' has been connected, asks whether to open in Gwenview, Digikam or Dolphin
3. Select 'Download photos with Digikam'

Expected result:
Digikam opens with device manager window showing all photos stored on the phone allowing me to select them and download. This is the behaviour pre-KDE 4.11.1

Actual result:
Digikam opens with device manager window showing blank, as though there are no photos on the phone
