Bug Description
Rapidphoto downloader requested I report this as a bug. I have no/little idea of its' effect:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/
device_name = devices[
File "/usr/lib/
return self.devices[
KeyError: 1
This was a Pentax K3 plugged in with 2 SD cards. RPD did nothing until I selected "mount" on the two cards via PCManFM 1.3.1, at which point the download started, followed by this message
To post a comment you must log in.
I raised this bug as soon as the message appeared, "preserving the scene" .
I suspect the issue is simply due to group (/etc/groups) changes. The user lacked permission to mount the SD cards, then mount by the file-manager had some kind of timeout so the directories, in effect, disappeared .
Before you dismiss this as simply "not a bug" , I'd suggest you address the "cry wolf" issue.
I was asked to raise a bug, when the error should probably have been something like "no permission to read xxxx ... have you unmounted/unplugged the device?" If you want people to raise defects when an issue occurs, rather than simply ignoring them it would help if they don't get many false negatives.
