[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 927914] Re: Banshee not detecting Sandisk Sansa Clip Zip using MTP

[Rada]

I think this is because libmtp9 that's available to us on Ubuntu 11.10
is an old version. I've found this forum post:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=881293 which indicates that
upgrading libmtp to a newer version fixes the problem. I haven't been
able to found upgraded packages for libmtp3 nor have I been able to
build my own package from source. 'apt-get build-dep libmtp' does
apparently not satisfy all build-dependencies for the package. configure
does not detect anything wrong. Build just fails with

../src/.libs/libmtp.so: undefined reference to `get_usb_device_timeout'
../src/.libs/libmtp.so: undefined reference to `LIBMTP_Detect_Raw_Devices'
../src/.libs/libmtp.so: undefined reference to `get_playlist_extension'
../src/.libs/libmtp.so: undefined reference to `ptp_usb_event_wait'
../src/.libs/libmtp.so: undefined reference to `set_usb_device_timeout'
../src/.libs/libmtp.so: undefined reference to `guess_usb_speed'
../src/.libs/libmtp.so: undefined reference to `configure_usb_device'
../src/.libs/libmtp.so: undefined reference to `dump_usbinfo'
../src/.libs/libmtp.so: undefined reference to `close_device'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I guess we'll just have to upgrade to 12.04 when it is released. Nothing
else to do, really.

Title:
  Banshee not detecting Sandisk Sansa Clip Zip using MTP

Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Banshee does not detect my Sandisk Sansa Clip Zip MP3 Player using the
  MTP protocol on Ubuntu 11.10.

  I am using v2.2.1 of Banshee.

  As with Mass Storage mode, I would expect the device to appear in
  Banshee left-hand pane, but it doesn't.

  mtp-detect does detect the MP3 player so the MP3 player works.

  gMTP can detect and browse the device, as can Amarok.
