Hello Dr. Tobias Quathamer and Antoine Beaupré,

Rapid Photo Downloader 0.9.27 is the minimum version that will run on
Python 3.10. Earlier versions of Rapid Photo Downloader crash on
Python 3.10.

Primary new features:
 - enabling downloading from iOS devices
 - running under WSL 2

New package requirements:

 - https://github.com/damonlynch/showinfilemanager (not yet packaged in Debian)
 - libimobiledevice-utils
 - ifuse
 - fuse

These changes are detailed in the change log:
https://github.com/damonlynch/rapid-photo-downloader/blob/main/CHANGES.md
, which I encourage you to read.

(I neglected to mention the packages libimobiledevice-utils, ifuse &
fuse in the README.md included in the 0.9.27 tarball, sorry about
that).

Note: although the project code development takes place using GitHub,
Launchpad is used to mirror the source code and still hosts all
releases: https://launchpad.net/rapid

I plan to try to resurrect a PPA package for Rapid Photo Downloader.
If I get it going, perhaps that will be useful to you.

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask. I will do my
best to respond ASAP.


Best,
Damon

As always the tarball is available at https://launchpad.net/rapid/+download

Rapid Photo Downloader 0.9.29 does not contain any new package
requirements compared to 0.9.27, but it does contain new requirements
compared to the existing package in Debian. Among them is a new Python
package that is not in Debian:

https://github.com/damonlynch/showinfilemanager

In my initial bug report to make the package update request, I
mistakenly listed fuse as a dependency. I wrongly assumed fuse was a
dependency of ifuse, which is required by Rapid Photo Downloader
0.9.27 onward. However it turns out that fuse3 is now preferred to
fuse.

Thanks,
Damon

The program reports a python error right at start and can not be used
after that, therefore rising severity.
