 * I used the WordPress installer, and it caused a problem with the Admin side:
 * Fatal error: Cannot redeclare add_screen_meta_link() (previously declared in /…/
   wp-content/plugins/flickr-shortcode-importer/screen-meta-links.php:254) in /…
   l/wp-content/plugins/broken-link-checker/includes/screen-meta-links.php on line
   268

 * Jim,
 * I just ran into this myself the other day. The problem is that screen-meta-links.
   php is only partially protected from class exists for multiple inclusion of this
   file. If there was a function_exists check on add_screen_meta_link, we’d not 
   have the Fatal error.
 * My fix is to only include screen-meta-links.php if add_screen_meta_link isn’t
   defined. Hopefully this will work for you in version 1.7.6 of Flickr Shortcode
   Importer.
 * If not, I recommend turning off Broken Links Checker while doing your Flickr 
   Imports.
