GtkPod libid3tag-0.15 problem [solved]

I originally posted this in the 'problems' section but it has come to my attention from the irc channel that I'm not the only one who's having this problem, so that usually means it's a bug! Ok, I tried to install gtkpod from sourcery and got the following error:
Code: Select all
checking for library containing id3_frame_field... no
configure: error: *** id3tag >= 0.15 lib not found (0.14 will not work!)
fakeroot -- sh gtkpod.SlackBuild Failed
Normally, I would just upgrade libid3tag but I already have libid3tag-0.15.1b-x86_64-4 installed. I'm pretty sure that file was installed along with easytag from salix repos.
For the record, I'm running Salix Xfce 13.37 64 bit.

This may be a bug in gtkpod or a missing configure option for libid3tag. As this is not a Salix bug you should contact the maintainer of the Slackbuild and request an update to the latest gtkpod version (the one provided by the Slackbuils is really old).

This is a known bug.
When (if) I get time I'll package up the annoying amount of dependencies for gtkpod 2.0.1 and put in the repo.
I've had to install Ubuntu on my wife's laptop so she can sync her music and pictures with her iPhone. I've created SLKBUILD's for
usbmuxd,
libimobiledevice and
ifuse which allows you to mount the device but you still can't access all the files without gtkpod or something like it (Banshee, Rhythmbox etc)!
Sometimes I really miss Gnome.

This problem seems to have fixed itself... Not really sure how, but I'm not going to question it. I just went to SlackBuilds.org and ran these commands:
mkdir /home/neruson/builds
cd /home/neuson/builds
wget
http://slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/13.3 ... pod.tar.gz
tar -zxf gtkpod.tar.gz
ls
rm -rf gtkpod.tar.gz
cd gtkpod
wget
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gtkpod ... .14.tar.gz
chmod +x gtkpod.SlackBuild
./gtkpod.SlackBuild
I ran these same exact commands in my terminal when sourcery didn't work (i saved a log and checked to make sure too) and i ran into the error there, but this time it worked fine and I used installpkg to install it. I filed a bug report at SlackBuilds.org so maybe they fixed it and didn't bother to get back to me?
Anyway, wheh! I'm glad I got this working, I don't like gnupod

Sadly, I've had to install Windows on my wife's laptop because libgpod doesn't support version four of the iOS but I'm glad you managed to get it to work.
