Hello,
I changed my paths in the installer as follows:

AME="IcePodder"
NAME2="icepodder"
NAME3="iPodder"
INSTALLER_NAME="$NAME installer"
INSTALLER_VERSION="2.2"
INSTALLER_PATH="/opt/local/${NAME2}"
INSTALLER_BIN="/opt/bin"
INSTALLER_COPYRIGHT="Copyright 2006, ${NAME} Team"
INSTALLER_LICENSE="

When I tried to run the program it assumed that the program was installed to /usr/share/ because the path in CastPodder.sh hadn't been changed:

cd /opt/local/icepodder
python CastPodderGui.py

So when changing the installer path the path in CastPodder.sh needs to be changed as well.

For a better installation method look at:
http://gpodder.berlios.de
Where I can use checkinstal to build my packages from source.

    Good call, I don't think we should be using that sort of script to run or install. My first priority is getting a good packaging mechanism and build process into place, and this will be the first priority after that.
