I'm reopening this bug because the problem persists for several locale settings. As I said in the upstream bug report, matching the localized mount point name is really ugly, and even using something like "*g[Pp]hoto2*" might work for most locales it still fails for some (in the worst case, gphoto2 is translated as ГФото2 …). There's a better alternative, use the "unmount-scheme" option.

If you are affected by the bug in your locale, please try replacing the line starting with "Exec=…" in the /usr/share/applications/gthumb-import.desktop file by

Exec=sh -c 'gvfs-mount -s gphoto2; exec gthumb --import-photos'

This should work independent of the locale.
