Bug Description
Please backport libgphoto2 from Gutsy to Feisty - there are important bugfixes and new cameras support in stable 2.4.0 release (libgphoto2 in Feisty is unstable release - 2.3.1). Look at comments bellow for more info about bugs in Feisty's libgphoto2 library:
After updating to Ubuntu feisty (7.04) I can no longer import photo's from my camera. I tried the '386' and 'generic' kernel and the 'desktop' LiveCD, all have the same problem.
I write a message at the bottom of Bug #78756, but decided to start a new bug. Bug #85879 looks alike, but the fix metioned in Bug #103439 didn't work. And my camera (04a9:30f8) is already listed in 45-libgphoto2.
Connecting the camera : The "import photos" dialog shows, but hangs 9 out of 10 times. If it works, I can import photos, although a ptp error is shortly shown.
gphoto2 --auto-detect : Shows "Canon PowerShot A430 (PTP mode)".
gphoto2 -L : hangs, also with sudo.
gphoto2 -P : hangs, also with sudo.
The following is a part of the debug output for "gphoto2 -L". After that, it is repeating to open a PTP session and trying to write.
