[Bug 1873944] [NEW] SRU request for rapid-photo-downloader 0.9.22-0ubuntu1 to fix startup segfault on focal

 

Public bug reported:

I'm the developer of Rapid Photo Downloader. Version 0.9.23 (already
released) contains an important bug fix for a segfault that occurs on
some but not all systems due to Gtk being called incorrectly during
application startup.

Version 0.9.23 contains other bug fixes which are less critical but
still welcome. If an SRU is created in my opinion it would be best to
include these additional fixes as they are extremely unlikely to cause
any further problems.

The changes from 0.9.22 to 0.9.23 are as follows, in order of
importance:

 - Fixed bug #1872338 segfault on startup. When running under a Gtk-based 
   desktop, the application now queries xsettings to detect if monitor
   scaling is enabled. In the previous release, Gtk was queried directly, 
   which caused segfaults on some systems.

 - Fixed bug #1872188: sqlite3.OperationalError when generating
thumbnails.

 - Fixed bug #1873233: RAW and JPG don't synchronize when using stored
number.

 - Fixed bug where HEIF/HEIC thumbnails on a camera were not being generated
   until they were downloaded.

 - Fixed bug #1873057: Add ORI to list of supported image formats.

 - When generating video thumbnails for phones and tablets, the entire video
   will now be downloaded and cached. Previously only a portion of the video was
   downloaded, in the hope that this portion could generate the thumbnail, but
   unfortunately it did not always render. This new behavior will slow down
   thumbnail generation, but does ensure the thumbnail will be rendered.
