You've obviously got GThumb installed - it **usually** comes with the Gthumb photo import
tool which I suspect uses the GPhoto2 library(s).

Check with apt whether it's a separate download. I use it all the time
except when I am in Mate when the Caja file manager loads up my camera
automatically. Do you have any desktop  like Gnome or Mate ?
