Arch Linux

Description:

rapid-photo-downloader segfaults early upon execution (see https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=257875). Some users (I was not able to reproduce this second part) report that problem is solved when using a pip-installed pyqt5 instead of the provided by the distribution (https://bugs.launchpad.net/rapid/+bug/1890119)

To reproduce, just execute rapid-photo-downloader fron an up-to-date Arch Linux machine:

$rapid-photo-downloader -v
INFO: Rapid Photo Downloader is starting
Fatal Python error: Segmentation fault
