[Bug 442448] Re: gthumb photo import tool fails, error in io-library

[Dusty Phillips]

This looks like a race condition; gthumb is, for some users, loading
before the gvfs-mount command has fully taken effect. My workaround is
to change the command line of the gthumb import desktop file
(system-->preferences-->main menu-->graphics-->gthumb-import-
tool-->properties-->command to the following.

sh -c 'gvfs-mount -s gphoto2 ; sleep 3 ; exec gthumb --import-photos'

The sleep command in the middle gives gvfs-mount time to completely
unmount.

A proper fix would be to patch gthumb to unmount the camera
automatically before it attempts to import. A proper implementation of
the above workaround might be to add an option to gvfs-mount that forces
it not to return until the action has completed.
