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.
