As a very inactive release-team member, this request sounds fine to me, but the details are still somewhat vague here.
We need to get that new dependency packaged and in the archive ASAP. As to a new upstream version for 3.10 support, sure if that's the easiest way to got 3.10 support, do it. The package sounds broken enough now that that's a no-brainer. It would be good to have a diff to review, to make a less hand-wavey decision. Presumably a minimal patch to support 3.10 is also possible, as an alternative, but I don't have any objection to a new upstream version. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Studio Bugs, which is subscribed to rapid-photo-downloader in Ubuntu.

Unfortunately, it also has new dependencies, including an entirely new package (in progress, showinfilemanager https://github.com/damonlynch/showinfilemanager). As such, these new dependencies are to enable at least one new feature in rapid-photo- downloader. As it stands now, rapid-photo-downloader will fail to run in jammy due to the python 3.10 update. Original Bug Report: To run Rapid Photo Downloader with Python 3.10 (now the default in jammy), the rapid-photo-downloader package must be updated to version 0.9.31. If it is not, it will crash at startup. I am the developer of Rapid Photo Downloader and I am happy work with Ubuntu packagers to get this done. The volunteer Debian packager has not responded to package update requests for some months. I think it reasonable to assume he will not likely be able to contribute before jammy is released.
