Package: gnome-volume-manager
Version: 2.22.1-1
Severity: normal

When I plug a camera into my computer, I get a dialog box titled
"Photo Import", saying "A Photo card has been detected.
There are photos on the card.  Would you like to add these pictures
to your album?"

*1 It doesn't answer the question "What album?".
(To you, it may be obvious.   To the user, it isn't.
It is epecially mysterious to me, since I run xfce4, and don't really expect
gnome things to appear on my desktop.   Nor do I have trivial access
to most of gnome or gnome help.)

The dialog boxes should allow users who want some detailed
information to get it!   What program is putting this up?
What album?  Stored where?


*2 It doesn't tell me if it will wipe the memory of the camera
or not.    Unless I know that, and unless I know where my pictures
will go, you can be pretty sure I will not click "Import Photos".


*3 At the very least, it should say "gnome" somewhere or have a link
to some help.


*4 It's not at all obvious why the box appears at all on my system,
since I don't have a gnome desktop installed  (though I have installed
a good number of gnome programs.)    Perhaps there is an
inappropriate "requires" in some package file?


If this isn't a gnome dialog box, I apologize.    You can then feel
superior to KDE or XFCE4.
