A typo in the bug description :-( : "A key part of it is "find -name *.JPG", where $me contains the numeric user id" should be "A key part of it is "find /run/user/$me/gvfs/ -name *.JPG", where $me contains the numeric user id"

A key part of it is "find -name *.JPG", where $me contains the numeric user id. My user is created as an admin user by the user created during OS install. But when this script is run by a normal user, find doesn't, i.e. no data returned. Nautilus pops up as usual when the camera is connected and switched on, "ls /run/user/$me/gvfs/......" with an explicit path also works. So my workaround is an ugly three layer for loop that uses ls instead. Have not found any information on this problem on the 'net.
