Yeah, the upstream sounds like this bug, although gphoto2 is fairly successful at importing photos from my iPhone 5s running iOS 8.3, using these args:
gphoto2 –port=usb: -R -P I picked that up from a bug report of the same problem in Fedora 21, on RedHat's bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1178256 Looks like there hasn't been any action on the upstream bug in a while, so getting the photos out of the camera via gphoto2 or the file manager, then importing into Shotwell, looks like it'll be our workaround for a while. ** Bug watch added: Red Hat Bugzilla #1178256 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1178256 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Studio Bugs, which is subscribed to shotwell in Ubuntu.
