This problem is still present: Shotwell cannot access the camera
although it is aware of its existence (it is correctly listed in the LH
side menu, in my case a Kodak EZ200).

The recommended method of unmounting the device in a file manager seems
to be bogus for many people: no device is mounted, so there's nothing to
unmount.

Something, somewhere, is grabbing the device when it is plugged in, and
nothing seems to be able to detect *what* process is responsible. I'm
attaching the syslog from when I plug it in. Perhaps someone with better
usb-fu can make sense of it.

** Attachment added: "syslog of plugging in Kodak EZ200 under Mint 18"
