+Release Notes for Rapid Photo Downloader 0.9.0
+==============================================
+
+ - On certain Linux distributions the program's icons may be missing,
+   including icons for menus. To resolve this problem, from the command line
+   issue the following command:
+
+   python3 -m pip install --user PyQt5
+
+   This command will upgrade the version of PyQt and Qt for your user (the
+   rest of the system will be unaffected). When Rapid Photo Downloader is next
+   run, the icons should be displayed.
+
+ - On some systems, Rapid Photo Downloader cannot use gstreamer to generate
+   video thumbnails. These systems include Fedora 24 and Fedora 25, Ubuntu
+   16.10 and 17.04, LinuxMint 18.1, and openSUSE 42.2 and openSUSE Tumbleweed.
+
+ - On systems with version 0.18 of libraw, Rapid Photo Downloader cannot
+   render thumbnails for raw images that don't have embedded thumbnails,
+   such as DNG files from Android phones. Rapid Photo Downloader uses rawkit
+   to interface with libraw, and rawkit 0.5.0 is incompatible with libraw
+   0.18.
+
+ - When running the program from the command line, if you see a message
+   something like this:
+
+   You are using pip version 8.1.1, however version 9.0.1 is available.
+   You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.
+
+   This message can be ignored. However, if you do want to upgrade pip, the
+   safest way to upgrade is like this:
+
+   python3 -m pip install --upgrade --user pip
