I am using f-spot 0.4.3.1 on debian testing. For whatever reason the upload to flickr stopped working entirely. Trying to upload whatever picture results in an error message (after many minutes of waiting):

-----------------------
Problems uploading picture: FlickrNet.FlickrApiException: POST size too large! Try something smaller, mmkay? (93)
at FlickrNet.Flickr.UploadPicture (System.IO.Stream stream, System.String title, System.String description, System.String tags, Int32 isPublic, Int32 isFamily, Int32 isFriend, ContentType contentType, SafetyLevel safetyLevel, HiddenFromSearch hiddenFromSearch) [0x00000]

at FlickrRemote.Upload (IBrowsableItem photo, IFilter filter, Boolean is_public, Boolean is_family, Boolean is_friend) [0x00000]
----------------------

This happens with small rescaled pictures as well as for "normal" 4MB jpegs. I also tried pictures which I already successfully uploaded before. It is not a matter of a new f-spot version since upload worked with this version before (and I tried 0.4.2, just to be sure). The f-spot developer say that my test picture I sent them works for them... I also tried on another computer (ubuntu), same result. I want to use f-spot because this exports the tags I am already using in f-spot. Network config hasn't changed and everything else seems to work normal. Any ideas what could cause this error message?
