Can't download because destination is deleted? #34

I've succesfully downloaded an album, and I later deleted it from the local hard drive. When I run the downloader again, it cannot re-download the files, giving the error:

My expected behavior would be that if the target image (probably in the database) is missing, then re-download it.

Please note that there is a workaround: if I manually create the deleted directory, then the archiver downloads the photos in it.

Good to know there is a workaround for now, this is definitely a bug. I will log it and hopefully get to it soon.
