It's not the first bug who is not fixed in one or more years, the problem is, when you invite new users to discover ubuntu, at a time, they will need to connect their phone on their computer, and they will say: This doesn't work, and the fix (via mtpfs-go) is complicated for basic users.
Today from the boot to the basic usage, you have a lot of problems never fixed or ignored when reported that make ubuntu or linux in general not user friendly, and even if people with some knowledge in IT always find after some hours a way to use their favorite OS on their computer, the lambda user, who will be really happy to use ubuntu, is in fact not able to install it, or use it on some specific points like this, even if they follow a tutorial. (Boot, uefi, wifi, graphics, mtp, bugs in gui, missing basic feature or removed, sound, video, etc....)
For information, with go-mtpfs, you can set an higher timeout value, then the mtp is usable, the bug is just a timeout issue....not fixed in 1 year....
