Lenovo S90 MTP device identification

[Roman Bazalevsky]

* Impact
the device is not listed in the desktop interface

* Test case
somebody owning the device there should connect it to an ubuntu desktop and check that it's correctly list

* Regression potential
check that mtp devices keep working as they should (listed in nautilus, can copy files, etc)

Hello Roman, or anyone else affected,

Accepted libmtp into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libmtp/1.1.6-20-g1b9f164-1ubuntu2.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.
