Public bug reported:

I own a Kodak ZD710 camera, which is a standard USB PTP camera. In
Gutsy, my camera worked out-of-box with libgphoto2, in GNOME and in
KDE's digiKam.

In Hardy, I am unable to access the camera as a normal user. When opening the 
camera, digiKam reports:
Failed to connect to the camera. Please make sure it is connected properly and 
turned on. Would you like to try again?
On the terminal, the following messages appear:
digikam: Failed to initialize camera!
digikam: Libgphoto2 error: Could not claim the USB device (-53)

Running digiKam via sudo makes the camera work, but this is insecure. I
suspect this regression is the result of a permissions error.
