No suitable photos found in photoset (should find PD files)
Flickr2commons doesn't find any photos for search http://tools.wmflabs.org/flickr2commons/?photoset=72157654284126361, which has over 400 PD files (maybe because they are PD?). It does work for individual photos http://tools.wmflabs.org/flickr2commons/?photoid=18447075259 in the set.

I'm able to reproduce this as well. When an album contains images labeled 'No Known Copyright Restrictions' (Flickr Commons) or a Wikimedia-accepted CC license (CC-BY, CC-BY-SA), Flickr2commons works great – but if images are labeled as 'Public Domain', there are no results shown in Flickr2commons. However, as Antoine said, you can input individual photo IDs and Flickr2commons will allow the image to be uploaded, but it doesn't recognize the license (I think it said something like 'undefined' or 'unknown' if I recall correctly). Thanks!

repo owner - changed status to resolved
There are two Flickr "public domain" licenses, CC-zero and "public domain mark 1". The tool had support for the former, but not the latter.
I have added support for "PD-mark" now, however, please keep in mind that you HAVE to change the template on Commons manually, or the file will be deleted: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Flickr-public_domain_mark
If this results in lots of file transfers that result in lots of deletions, I'm turning it back off again!

Hi, I have the same problem, this album for example: https://www.flickr.com/photos/projectapolloarchive/albums/72157658999650280 has 46 photos in public domain, but when I try to upload them, I have the message "No suitable photos found. Maybe they are not under a free license?" (but it works when adding those photos one by one). It would be nice if you could fix that bug :)
