Comment 33 for bug 865032

There is an alternative for those who use digikam as photo management software.

sudo apt-get install gphoto2

gphoto2 is a command line software to download images from the camera using command line.

To download all your pictures, just open a terminal window and type:

gphoto2 --get-all-files

It will download all files into the current directory.

To delete all the files in the camera:

gphoto2 --delete-all-files

and that's it. Then you can use digikam to process the images.
