[Gtkpod-questions] libgpod 0.7.93 is out!

[Christophe F. <cfe...@gm...>]

Hi folks,

libgpod 0.7.93 is now out. It's a bug fix release, the 2 most
important changes being some polish to the HAL/udev iPhone callout
(which probably failed quite often to create SysInfoExtended) and a
fix for the iPod Classic 80GB which failed to display any songs after
writing to it using one of the earlier 0.7.9x releases.

This is still a development release towards libgpod 0.7.93, though I
might get bored of saying that and just rebrand one of the 0.7.9x
release as 0.8.0 and start landing more invasive changes :)

Lots of thanks to everyone who contributed to this release, see
git-shortlog below.

As always, if you find any bug, please report it, either to this
mailing list or to sourceforge bug tracker.

Enjoy,

Christophe

Overview of changes in libgpod 0.7.93
=====================================

For information about iPhone/iPod Touch/iPod Nano 5g support, please read
carefully the overview of libgpod 0.7.90 below.
This release mainly contain bugfixes that should polish iPhone use.

* various bug fixes in HAL/udev iPhone callout which would make it fail
  to dump SysInfoExtended more often than not.
* fix iPod Classic 80GB support (Joeny Ang).
* handle TV Shows, Movies and Music Videos on iPhone better (Joel Smith)
* fix python bindings for the iPhone (Adrian Sampson).
* fix OnTheGo playlist parsing (the 1st on-the-go playlist was always
  ignored).
* automatically call itdb_shuffle_write when itdb_write is called if needed.
* some gint32/guint32 changes were made in the public API, this shouldn't
  break anything, but please report a bug if it's an annoyance for you.
* lower udev rule priority so that it runs after the usbmux udev rule.
