Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-volume-manager

Description: Ubuntu 8.04.1
Release: 8.04
gnome-volume-manager:
  Installed: 2.22.1-1ubuntu6
  Candidate: 2.22.1-1ubuntu6
  Version table:
 *** 2.22.1-1ubuntu6 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

When plugging in my 16 GB iPhone 3G I get the expected "Camera Import: A camera has been detected" dialog box with the buttons "Ignore" and "Import Photos" with a "Always perform this action" checkbox.

Checking "Always perform this action" and clicking "Ignore" does not persist; unplugging my phone and plugging it back in again results in the same Camera Import dialog box.

I'd expect to never see the dialog box again by selecting "Always perform this action" and clicking "Ignore" since I'd rather do imports manually in F-Spot instead of a dialog box popping up every time I plug in a USB device that Ubuntu thinks has photos on it.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Do you get the same with Intrepid? Thanks in advance.

A-ha, so the thing is that both nautilus and gvm are fighting over the device. If the handling is disabled in nautilus, a gvm dialog pops up and doesn't obey it's settings.

I got a confirmation, that gnome-volume-manager should not be installed since hardy. So if you've dist-upgraded, you need to purge the package.
