I've tried pretty much everything I can above.  I've checked the #44
above and done it and besides that the packge looked correct anyways
before I opened it.  The computer was updated fully before trying.  It
seems this bug is connected to just Canon now as the reports above seem
to fix the others.

here is the link to the paste of the command line stuff from the
machine: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9789752/

the exact model number is the Canon SX20 IS as per Robert above.

version is 14.04 fully up to date on 64 bit machine

Anything else i can do to help you resolve this would be awesome as my
mom is not liking using the SD card removal each time.  This worked
perfectly before the upgrade to 14.04.

Thanks!

Bug description:
  I have a Canon Powershot A3200 camera. It works perfectly on 12.04,
  pops right up when I plug it in. However on 14.04 nothing happens.

  lsusb outputs shows that the camera is detected, with the right model.

  SRU INFORMATION:
  ----------------
  IMPACT: All PtP cameras which don't have an explicit vendor/model match in /lib/udev/hwdb.d/20-libgphoto2-6.hwdb stop working in gvfs/shotwell/etc. This is a regression since Saucy.

  FIX: Bring back the udev rule to tag generic PtP devices that we had had for many releases. This will tag the udev_device with the ID_GPHOTO2 property which is where gvfs and friends are looking (not on the usb_interface child).
  Patch: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/177343655/libgphoto2_2.5.4-1ubuntu1_2.5.4-1ubuntu2.diff.gz

  REGRESSION POTENTIAL: Very low. Adding tags to the wrong device might
  confuse gvfs/shotwell and friends, but this rule had been in
  production for many years. Broken udev rules are harmless except for
  error spew in syslog, and this doesn't interfere with the hwdb
  database as it only matches on usb_devices, not on usb_interfaces.
