Re: [Gtkpod-devel] helping flesh out podcast support

[Jerry D. <jd...@gm...>]

Jorg, I checked out the source from CVS and got it to compile with a little
bit of difficulty. Nothing major though. I was wondering just in terms of
usability how much of the preference system was supposed to be functional. =
I
get all sorts of nasty type casting errors (these are easy to sort out) and
then a segfault when adding a podcast stream in the preference panel. I'm
going to dig into the issue I'm having but I wanted to know how much of the
prefernces I should expect to work right now.
-Jerry.
