I agree with Estel's suggestion. camera-ui2 is buggy as hell, and no one seems to maintain it. I've experienced a very infuriating bug [1]. Imagine yourself on an abroad trip with each <3;20> photo not being saved. A camera-ui hang instead. Btw. no feedback from so-called maintainers (in the bug report I asked how to get some sensible log). And there've been similar bug reports in the past.

estel: IIRC you promised to open bugs against camera-ui a couple of months ago. It could be that I didn't search correctly, but I just can't find those bug reports on BMO. Your post above is a rant, not a bug report, sorry, not to say I am unable to reproduce what fails on your device. AFAIK you have more than one n900, could you please take one of those, flash it to stock rootfs/eMMC, install ONLY CSSU-T (or CSSU-thumb) and try to reproduce the issue.
camera-ui is not unmaintained, I just don't see bug reports against it which contain enough information for me (or some other guy) to start chasing the bug.
I know your (and marmistrz') device is heavily tweaked and it might be the reason why camera-ui fails for you while it works perfectly reliable for me (and not only me, my GF uses N900 too, so if there is some really big issue I would have heard about it already, lots of times
).

Agreed that bugs were not posted on BMO (although, last time I checked, camera-ui2 thread was full of reproducible bugs... I thought that they're "common knowledge", understanding, that chasing them in such long thread may be a little time-wasting for devs), and glad to hear that CSSU's camera-ui isn't unmaintained.
I'll browse through camera-ui2's thread and try to reproduce it (and compare) in both devices, my daily-use one and the CSSU-Thumb only one. Then, it's time to gather them all in BMO report.
Don't expect it to happen tomorrow, though Help from any people experiencing problems (in form of refreshing my memory about issues you've encountered, posted in fresh post in camera-ui2 thread) highly appreciated.
/Estel
// Edit
Glad to see that my "rant" resulted in at least:
https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12731
...getting responses and actual debugging work, after like what, 3 months of being totally ignored? Not that I don't agree with request for posting everything important on BMO instead of random TMO threads, but even the sole bug report seems to indicate that my "feeling" about camera-ui being maintainer-less wasn't totally unjustified, to say at least.
Anyway, if you're going to be the one squashing bugs in it, I'm more than happy and motivated for some bug-spotting, so all well that ends well!

an issue with the sharing-service-flickr package has been reported here probably due to changes in flickr authentication
is this something to be fixed in cssu-testing? (and hopefully stable as soon as we have a manteiner?)

After a while I returned to my beloved N900 , it showed a bunch of updates and I start doing manually, I started from CSSU updates they install then I update pigdori I think, my data was not working, I reboot it and it stuck on the boot loop.
Any solution before flash it? I did not backed it up. fxxc me...

I noticed a bug (either in CSSU's Qt or in the components).
How to reproduce:
1. Install useragenttool and qt-components-1.4
2. Launch it
3. Click the + in the toolbar
4. Write anything in any of the fields
5. Select something of it
6. Try to move one of the drops at the ends (to change the selection, as in Harmattan)
Log & backtrace:
Is it something related to Qt or should I show it to the components' devs?

Whats even more strange, after every photo, I get image-viewer pop-up showing it. mmcblk0p1's filesystem is Ok, no related error messages in terminal or syslog or dmesg.
---
Anyway, considering the epic amount of serious bugs/regressions with CSSU's camera-ui and no chances for anyone fixing them in foreseeable future, I opt for moving it "back" to cssu-devel, at least until someone able to maintain it and fix bugs is found.
Believe me, I'm requesting it with heavy heart, considering how I love idea of FOSS camera replacement and the features camera-ui introduced. It's just completely unreliable to use ATM, without any bugfix for a year or godsknowhowlong.
Considering the fact that FOSS camera-ui is requiment for 720p video recording, there is another possibility - moving camera-ui replacement to extras-* as a non-conflicting package, so people (like me) could use normal camera-ui for everyday needs, and replacement solely for photo taking.
And yes, I know that every can ditch replacement camera-ui on own device (managing dependencies, mp-fremantle-community-pr pestering about them, etc), but it's not the point - I think that keeping stuff in cssu-testing makes sense if we have maintainer that is able and willing to fix discovered bugs, not stockpiling on them over years without clear purpose, right? I'm all for introducing it back if someone starts to work on it again, by any means.
