Release notes 

Fixed bugs #1025908 and #1186955: Finalize fix for severe performance problems
and crashes that arose from the combination of Gnome's GIO file functionality
and python's multiprocessing. The solution was to remove GIO and replace it with
regular python file processing. A nice side effect is that the program now runs
faster than ever before.

Fixed bug #1268291: Handle cases where filesystem metadata (e.g. file
permissions) could not be copied when writing to certain file systems such as
NTFS. The program will now consider a file is copied succesfully even if the
filesystem metadata could not be updated.

Fixed bug #1269032: When Sync RAW + JPEG sequence numbers is enabled, the
program fails to properly deal with photos with corrupt EXIF metadata.

Fixed bug #1269079: Download failure when folder exists for only one of photo or
video on auto detected back devices.

Updated Norwegian and Serbian translations.
