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 |
