permissions wrong with flickrfs

Binary package hint: flickrfs

I am trying to get the FUSE based filesystem connection to Flickr.

Things seem to be working OK, things seem to attach to Flickr. But the
mounted directory doesn't appear to work properly.

e.g.

jamie@special:~$ python2.5 /usr/bin/flickrfs public_photos/
Authorizing with flickr...
Authorization complete.
Sets are being populated in the background. Please wait...
Sets have been populated. Done.

jamie@special:~$ ls -la |grep public
ls: cannot access public_photos: Invalid argument
d????????? ? ? ? ? ? public_photos

jamie@special:~$ cd public_photos

jamie@special:~/public_photos$ ls -la
ls: cannot access .: Invalid argument
ls: cannot access tags: Invalid argument
ls: cannot access sets: Invalid argument
total 4
?????????? ? ? ? ? ? .
drwxr-xr-x 111 jamie jamie 4096 2010-01-06 21:00 ..
?????????? ? ? ? ? ? sets
?????????? ? ? ? ? ? tags
jamie@special:~/public_photos$

I don't get it. I've looked at no end of man pages, debug output etc
etc..

I sense it's a basic fuse problem rather than the module.

jamie@special:~$ cat /etc/lsb-release
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=9.10
DISTRIB_CODENAME=karmic
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 9.10"
jamie@special:~$

I'm using python 2.5 as 2.6 creates a whole different set of issues.

jamie@special:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 9.10
Release: 9.10

Cheers
