I am still seeing the "short read on fuse device" error that I reported
the other day.  The log file does not show any errors; the last line
reads

   Creating file:/sets/Michigan football game/naptime:with id:1156242

which corresponds to the last photo in the last set.  Not having much
luck with debugging so far, but then again I don't know much about FUSE.
Any debugging suggestions you have would be very helpful.

Also, I couldn't help but notice that flickrfs.py has a whole lot of
indentation that mixes tabs and spaces.  That's a dangerous thing to do
in Python; there's a note about it here:
http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0008.html
I'd be happy to submit a patch that uses spaces for all indentation.  It
takes about 2 seconds to fix in Vim.

Some checks:
1. ls -al /dev/fuse -> does it show a character device? (Though, this shd b=
e
fine, otherwise flickrfs won't mount)
2. Try out flickr account of your friend, on the same installation, and see
if the prob remains. You'll need to remove ~/.flickr directory containing
the authentication information, so that flickrfs will show the login prompt
again.
3. Add some debugging statements to sets_thread, and see if the thread
returns before the error shows up.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will identate it properly in the next version
according to python style.

I registered a new account and uploaded a couple of photos.  Same
problem.  However, I did uncover another bug: if the user has no sets,
then the main for loop in sets_thread fails because rsp.photosets[0] has
no 'photoset' attr.  I guess you can fix it with something like

   if hasattr(rsp.photosets[0], "photoset"):
      for a in rsp.photosets[0].photoset:
         ...

sets_thread does return.  However, I'm not sure whether the "short read"
error occurs before or after sets_thread returns.  The error message
doesn't show up until I hit enter.  If I don't touch the keyboard then
the flickrfs process just sits there doing nothing after iterating
through all the tags and sets (and the mount point remains empty), so I
assume the error has already occurred even though the message is not
printed until I hit enter.  Must be some weird multithreading thing.

Someone else reported this as well. Will fix it asap.

While mounting flickrfs, don't do it as a background process.
# ./flickrfs /mnt/flickrfs (no &)
You shd be able to see the error msg. Also, you may use the 'print'
statement inside the code, instead of the log.info <http://log.info> so as
to print it on the same terminal (on which you mounted).

Problem solved.  Turns out I had a year-old copy of fuse-python
installed, and flickrfs was loading that version instead of the current
one.  Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks for a great little program.  This looks like the perfect unixy
interface to flickr.  I look forward to seeing what other features you
have in mind.

Great Paul ! That's really good news. Do check out features-request list on
sourceforge main page.
