Dale: As part of the original description for this bug, I mentioned that I was able to extract the images off my camera using gtkam; among its dependencies are libgphoto2-2 and libgphoto2-port0 :)
Unfortunately, having them installed on my system doesn't seem to help the dbus error problem with running gnome-volume-manager-gthumb on my system. However, if running gtkam lets you get to your pics, then consider it a workaround until this bug is solved. -- photo import does not work any more https://launchpad.net/bugs/78756 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
