I am receiving this error after deploying my django project on AWS. Why this lib is trying to create .flickr folder in /home/{username} ?

Ok - now I understand. It needs this folder to store the token. We can disable storing by setting store_token to false.

flickr = flickrapi.FlickrAPI(self.KEY, self.SECRET, format='parsed-json', store_token=False)

Anyway I think location of this folder should be configurable.
