Hi, thanks for your bug report. Because your desktop environment doesn't have the locale set up correctly (if at all), you actually found an exception in the arrow library. Now whether that's a bug in the library or not is open to interpretation, but in any case Rapid Photo Downloader should catch the exception it generates.

Meanwhile I suggest setting up the locale properly on your system. You really should have that set!

summary: - crashes during loading
+ exception in arrow when locale is not set

Actually I stand corrected. Looking at the code, the Rapid Photo Downloader should not pass the value None to arrow.locales.get_locale().
