Well. Maybe it's just too late, but…

In gthumb's [src/dlg-photo-importer.c] get_file_list(), it looks to me
like the call to gp_camera_file_get_info() succeed, you wouldn't be
talking about “application/x-unknown” otherwise. Then valid_mime_type()
is called. Looking at this one, it first tries to check the claimed
mime type, then only falls back to picking the extension and trying to
map it to a known one. It looks to me like gthumb ought to consider a
NEF extension as valid, no?

Now, it would be nice to learn a bit about your camera, to see what
gphoto2 tells us, once debug is enabled (--debug/--debug-logfile, see
manpage). Also, there's a 2.4.5-1 around in unstable, in case you want
to check the latest bugfix release.

Mraw,
KiBi.
