This is not the hard thing. The hard thing is that scripts like "check_mtp_device.sh" take a long time to invoke, and I would prefer to have it rewritten in plain C. That would make it simpler to add OS descriptor probing too, if desired. examples/devicecheck.c Installs as <prefix>/bin/mtp-devicecheck And is used from the udev script. Can it be done? > 2.

If libmtp can help with any of this, the packagers (which are on this list) should voice their needs...
