First it does not say "you do not understand" but "perhaps i didnt explain 
myself clearly", ok? Esp. If you do not know with whom you are writing.
Second if you had read my postings you should have understood that I'm quite 
well are what "locks" are. I never claimed gphoto "freezes".
And it's not a "sense" of exclusive access but actually IS exclusive otherwise 
it's using semaphores which is quite common for i/o. Oh well it might be ok to 
not allow other applications to write. To be honest - no professional does 
this. When editing the raws or maybe jpegs you usually create a copy of this 
locally and never touch the original. In even more usual case is copying all 
files from the cam to the local disk. However I experienced such a phenomenon 
with gtkam. My cam went to standby after some seconds while not using it and 
gtkam was not able to reacquire access. I had to do a rescan and click thru the 
media-tree. Afterwards my pictures have been logically doubled (in the view, 
not the flash-media). And you tell me the lock issue confuses people? What 
about having gtkam not being able to access the cam anymore (just do a replug) 
and/or seeing a multiple of your pictures where some of them are not eben 
accessible.
There functionality that does not really work has been rolled out while you 
make a mountain of a molehill. And if it's not a "bug" as you say, why don't 
you insist,what you did in the first post: "RTFM". If it's obviously not a bug, 
then it's a feature and features are usually documented. Lol, we have software 
with bugs in hardy but not software that may confuse people. This is really 
awful. This is what will make ubuntu fuck up against fedora in the long 
term...creepy, really creepy.
