Weird camera issue

Today, the camera suddenly stopped working: black window and no shutter button. So I tried several workarounds, like pkcon refresh jolla-camera, uninstall/reinstall jolla-camera, version --dup, etc. without success. Always black window.

As I was still running v2.0.4.14 Fiskarsinjoki, I eventually upgraded to v2.0.5.6 Haapajoki (I was actually planning to skip Haapajoki, as v2.1.0.9 Iijoki is coming soon).

The camera is OK now, but I have no idea of what happened. Any hint?
