The problem seems to be exactly what the stack trace is pointing at. You need to provide a mount point, a directory where flickrfs would populate the photos.

$ python flickrfs/flickrfs.py ~/mnt/flickrfs

I'm sorry, messed up my posting.

But they did provide a mount point: "/flickr"

Anyway, they're not the only one with this problem. This is a duplicate of 1504522 and 1508208, with 1508208 holding a pseudo-patch that should fix this.

I was a wee bit too quick there. This is indeed a duplicate report of 1504522, but 1508208 is something else entirely. Sorry about that. The problem does seem to have been located in 1504522 though, including a work around.

This bug is fixed in CVS as of 1/27/2008 and will be in the next release. In the meantime you may be able to get it to work by downgrading your fuse-python to 0.1.
