Description Jakob Unterwurzacher 2013-10-14 21:43:13 UTC 
The camera shows up in Nautilus as "USB PTP Camera", it can be browsed and thumbnails are generated. But copying fails with "Operation not supported by backend".

This affects all distributions:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=984913
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=165497

It used to work fine in earlier versions.

Comment 2 Jakob Unterwurzacher 2013-10-17 06:59:19 UTC 
Comment #13 there says, to test, you would "Mount an ftp site and copy from there to another non-local backend". Just tried that - copied a file from FTP to another SFTP server, and got "Operation not supported by backend". Comment 15 even says it fixes the camera issue. Marking as duplicate, thanks
