[Bug 1338328] Re: Flickr API changed to https-only, Flickr export from kipi-plugins only uses http

[Torben Früchtenicht]

** Description changed:

  When trying to export pictures from Digikam to my Flickr account, I get
  a popup telling me that my token has expired. Telling Digikam to go
  ahead fetching a new token only results in another popup for "An error
  occurred: Unknown error. Cannot proceed" (rough translation from German
  popup). If I close that popup the progress bar popup remains visible,
  hanging at 50% (last message in that popup is "Getting frob".
  
- There is already a bug report in the KDE bug tracking:
- https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=336835 (see comment 5) and there is
- this announcement from Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/help/forum/en-
- us/72157645440333073/
+ Digikam did not give me any hints about what might be going wrong. But
+ it seems like the latest change of the Flickr API - https is now the
+ only allowed protocol - might be the issue here: See this bug report in
+ KDE bug tracking: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=336835 (see
+ comment 5) and there is this announcement from Flickr:
