As the main developer of frogr so far, please let me say thanks for you
reporting this bug and pushing for getting frogr integrated in Fedora. Thanks!

Now, just a couple of comments that I hope you'll find useful:

> Description:

This description is not correct. Since frogr 0.3 flickcurl is not being used
anymore, as we used our own libsoup-based library called flicksoup, which is
not being released separately yet (its development happens inside the frogr
tree at the moment). Nowadays, the "official" description that's used
everywhere is something like this:

"Frogr is a small application for the GNOME desktop that allows users
to manage their accounts in the Flickr image hosting website. It
supports all the basic tasks, including uploading pictures, adding
descriptions, setting tags and managing sets."

I think you'll find useful the list I use to generate "homegrown" fedora
packages while frogr is not shipped right from the distro:

 BuildRequires: gtk3-devel > 3.0, libsoup-devel > 2.24, libxml2-devel > 2.6.8,
libexif-devel > 0.6.14
 Requires: gtk3 > 3.0, libsoup > 2.24, libxml2 > 2.6.8, libexif > 0.6.14, gvfs,
desktop-file-utils

Also, you can take a look to the .spec file I used to build those "homegrown"
packages for frogr 0.5:
http://git.gnome.org/browse/frogr/tree/frogr.spec?id=003b3101cedb6e129eff60af4e4b6976afb3ab4c


Hope this helps!

Thanks,
Mario
