Bug#529613: gvfs-backends: gphoto2 backend blocks UMS/MSC access to devices

[Scott Barker]

I have noticed that a NativePriority= line has to be added to the file 
as well. I am using NativePriority=3. I don't actually know what that 
means, but it keeps gvfs from emitting error messages. Since I am unsure 
of the mechanics of all of this, it's probably best if the bug gets 
forwarded upstream, and/or if the fix is co-ordinated with ubuntu bug 
330383.
