Jaunty fully updated, the bug is still present.

I'm using gthumb to import the photos.

When connecting my camera, the camera card is mount TWICE, i.e. I get
two camera icons in drivemount applet, and gthumb --import cannot use
the device because it's already locked, I suppose because it's mounted
as an external storage.

The bug is present even on a fresh guest session: connecting the camera
asks whether to use f-spot or gthumb, and selecting gthumb says the
device is locked.

Anyone could say it's not a bug because you can download the photos from
the mounted storage, but it's not so: the user isn't told the storage is
mounted, and anyway copying from storage doesn't perform some tasks that
gthumb performs, such adjusting orientation and renaming the photos.

So we still have the bug.

Using ghpoto instead of gthumb to download the photos resolves the
issue. Apparently because gphoto unmonts the storage before donwloading,
and so should do gthumb.

I think the bug should be marked as a gthumb one.

It's definitely exists, as the guest session proves, so please reopen
it.
