Bug Description

testing silo 52 (messaging-app) on latest rc-proposed

Steps to repro:
- open messaging-app
- create message
- press + button and select video
- choose camera app

Expected results:
camera app is launched with viewfinder active

Actual results:
camera app is launched with black viewfinder. Note: switching to front camera or swiping app away and back will make the viewfinder appear correctly. Also, you can still record the video even though the viewfinder is black.

This bug was fixed in the package camera-app - 3.0.0+16.04.20160323.3-0ubuntu1

---------------
camera-app (3.0.0+16.04.20160323.3-0ubuntu1) xenial; urgency=medium

[ CI Train Bot ]
* Resync trunk. added: po/sk.po

  [ Florian Boucault, Ken VanDine, Ugo Riboni ]
  * New release: Only accept manual focus on points inside the
    viewfinder. viewFinderView.captureMode can now be set before the
    camera is ready. Take advantage of that to fix bug #1545123 Disable
    controls and prevent navigation while a delayed/timed shoot is
    ongoing. Display a stock icon as the video thumbnail when
    thumbnailer fails (which it will do now if it can't process a video)
    Allow sharing multiple files, except if they are mixed content Only
    use full screen in staged mode. added: UnableShareDialog.qml
    tests/unittests/tst_PhotogridView.qml (LP: #1545123)
