Does anyone know a clean way to tell KDE to release control of a connected MTP device?
The background is I want to backup my phone. To do that, I mount it with jmtpfs
and then run rsync
with some selected patterns. This used to work but since some time, jmtpfs
fails with the error message:
libusb_claim_interface() reports device is busy, likely in use by GVFS or KDE MTP device handling alreadyLIBMTP PANIC: Unable to initialize device
I have figured out a workaround is to stop the systemd user service dbus-:1.2-org.kde.kiod5@0.service
, but that doesn’t seem like a clean way and will likely have side effects.
Does anyone know a good way to do this?
