Public bug reported:
I made a script to find an process files in a USB connected camera. 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.
