". It just so happens it's only one of the few "well-known directories" that Shotwell defines."
I'm surprised at this assumption. DCIM (and filename rules) are part of now-ancient standards for digital cameras: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_rule_for_Camera_File_system Mobile phones with cameras have by long convention also offered this filesystem layout. My current iOS 9 device still does this, for example. This is nothing to do with Shotwell's preferences. ** Changed in: shotwell (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid ** Also affects: canonical-devices-system-image Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1283871 Title: Default mount points not suitable for photo import To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1283871/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
