I updated using the opensuse repo to pycairo 1.2.2 and get this error
when starting gpodder:
Traceback (most recent call last):

I tried putting the patch in the .config/gpodder folder and running the
patch but nothing happened, it just sat there at the CL. Do i have to
use only the svn and patch together or can i run the patch in the
.config/gpodder folder and it work?

I know this is not a bug with gpodder (this is not the first time i ran
into this with SLED). I really wanted 0.10.3 for the itms and other
protocol but am willing to put 10.2 back on if i could get the link to
download it from you?
