Description antymat 2015-07-13 11:19:35 UTC
Hi everyone,

I wanted to export some of my photos to Flickr. I have selected the photo, selected "Export" from the menu bar, then selected "export to flickr". Got 3 additional windows: "flickr export", "getting the frob" and the "flickr service web authorisation". The browser mentioned by the latter is never started, and so the plugin is never authorised. I cannot upload my photos.
Also tried to "use a different account" from "upload options". No difference, except the "getting the frob" window does not show.

I do understand that it might be some kind of misconfiguration - but I have no idea what could it be. 

Any clue what could be the reason and how to solve it?

BR,

M.W,

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start digikam
2. select a picture
3. select "export to flickr"

There is no special setup.

Actual Results:  
The browser is not startd,  plugin is not authenticated, and so I cannot share pictures.

Expected Results:  
Browser would be started, plugin authenticated, and sharing would be possible.

Shourya,

This is fixed with current implementation from git/master ?

Yes this is fixed with current implementation. This bug is no more valid. User gets authenticated properly and pics also get uploaded in the correct fashion.

Thanks a lot for clarification. 
So I understand that only Debian is behind. OK, will ask the maintainer.
