Package: flickrbackup
Version: 0.2-3
Severity: grave
Tags: patch
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
flickrbackup does not work at all anymore after:
https://code.flickr.net/2014/04/30/flickr-api-going-ssl-only-on-june-
27th-2014/
I changed the http calls to https calls in the code, and the package works
fine again.
I'm attaching a patch.
