[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 1335877] Re: HTTP 403, Forbidden when trying to upload to Flickr

[Matthieu Nguyen]

If I am not mistaken the FlickrNet library used by F-spot 0.8.2 is
FlickrNet 2.1.5

Looking at the source code, the URL flickrnet 2.1.5 uses to login to the
Flickr API is "http://api.flickr.com/services/rest/"

However, according to the Flickr Help Forum, the API switched to HTTPS-
only on June 27th: https://www.flickr.com/help/forum/en-
us/72157645440333073/

The FlickrNet API switched to HTTPS in
http://flickrnet.codeplex.com/SourceControl/changeset/105364 (March
2014). So flickrNet 3.13 is required now.

Title:
  HTTP 403, Forbidden when trying to upload to Flickr

Status in “f-spot” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Package: f-spot
  Version: 0.8.2-5.1
  Severity: important

  Dear Maintainer,

     * What led up to the situation?

  Authorization to Flickr was lost.  Hitting the Authorize button to re-
  authenticate when uploading to Flickr brings up "HTTP 403, Forbidden".

     * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
  ineffective)?

  I tried running with --debug.

     * What was the outcome of this action?

  It prints a bunch of mono-related stuff.

     * What outcome did you expect instead?

  It doesn't display the URL it tries to access.  (I suspect that the
  http API address has changed in Flickr, but cannot be sure.)
