Thank you for the approval. And thank you for making libqt5svg5 an
explicit dependency.

If there is still time I strongly encourage packaging version 0.9.22,
because it contains several important bug fixes compared to version
0.9.20.

https://launchpad.net/rapid/pyqt/0.9.22/+download/rapid-photo-
downloader-0.9.22.tar.gz

Relevant fixes include, in order of importance:

 - Fixed bug #1871649: Window corruption when application scaling enabled on
   certain desktop environments. The application now uses Qt and Gdk to query
   whether any monitor has scaling enabled. If no scaling is enabled on any
   monitor, then Rapid Photo Downloader will not enable automatic scaling.

   This is a brutal bug when it occurs! See
https://forum.qt.io/topic/113496/significant-window-corruption-with-
hidpi-scaling-enabled-on-x11-qt-5-12-5-14

 - Fixed bugs where camera insertion and removal was not being detected in some
   circumstances. In KDE, it was camera removal. In Gnome-like systems where
   auto mounting of cameras is disabled or not functional, it was insertion.

 - Fixed bug #1870566: Missing default locale causes startup failure.

 - More robustly handle a camera being unexpectedly removed during scanning,
   thumbnailing, and copying files.

 - Fixed bug introduced in 0.9.20 when resetting program preferences back to
   default values in the Preferences Dialog window.

 - Added an option to extract photo metadata (including thumbnails) using only
   ExifTool. Rapid Photo Downloader defaults to using Exiv2, relying on ExifTool
   only when Exiv2 does not support the file format being read. Exiv2 is
   fast, accurate, and almost always reliable, but it crashes when extracting
   metadata from a small number of files, such as DNG files produced by Leica M8
   cameras.

 - Updated Czech, Dutch, French, German, Japanese, Russian, Spanish and Turkish
   translations.

 - Fixed a bug where the number of photos and videos for a camera or phone would
   not be displayed under the devices section if the preference value "Scan only
   specific folders on devices" was not enabled.

Title:
  FFe: rapid-photo-downloader 0.9.20

Status in rapid-photo-downloader package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  From the Debian bug:
  -->
  Version 0.9.20 is released, with some important features for desktop
  integration e.g. bug fix in the .desktop file, and enabling showing
  launcher badge counts and progress bar on Gnome Shell extensions or
  desktops like KDE that support them. The metainfo.xml file is also
  drastically slimmed down as Gnome Software does not support
  internationalized screenshots.

  You should be able to remove the patches made to setup.py. If it fails
  for any reason, please let me know.

  These new packages must be added to the dependency requirements:

  - gir1.2-unity-5.0
  - python3-babel
  - libqt5svg5

  <--

  The release notes are at
  https://launchpadlibrarian.net/470185538/RELEASE_NOTES.rst

  but they're quite verbose, but of note is some high-dpi screen fixes
  to automatically scale the gui.

  I've built it for my own use, and seems to work fine.
