Indeed but udev was designed to run any of the scripts it finds in
/lib/udev. If libmtp-runtime installs /lib/udev/mtp-probe, *that*
is the package that should make sure mtp-probe can be executed.

I've tried to find an mtp-probe but the only thing that turned up was
/lib/udev/mtp-probe itself. This makes me believe that the message is
actually not saying that mtp-probe cannot be found but that it can not
(or no longer) find /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb3/3-4 for
some reason.

BTW, on my system libmtp-runtime appears to have been pulled in by vlc.

Hope this helps,
