Hello, iPod users of gPodder!
I've written a patch to add extended gtkpod database write support, so
gtkpod will not complain about wrong checksums when adding files.
You need the current SVN trunk head and the attached patch.
How to get SVN running:
http://wiki.gpodder.org/running-from-svn
Apply the patch:
patch -p0 < /path/to/gpodder_r605_gtkpod_extendeddb.patch
Test: Sync to the iPod, start gtkpod - it should not complain about a
wrong sha1sum.
Please test and tell me if it works. If it does, I'll commit it to
trunk.
Thanks,
Thomas
