Bug#504481: [libflickr-api-perl] Flickr API calls fail with 'API returned an invalid response'

[Mark Broadbent]

Package: libflickr-api-perl
Version: 1.01-2
Severity: grave
Tags: patch

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

This is related to bug #502312.

It would appear that the XML library used by this code has reverted back 
to returning 'element' types rather than 'tag' types requiring that the 
patch used in #502312 be reverted.

Patch below for the reversion:
