hmm it seems python 2.5.1 dropped the DefaultHandler definition.
And it looks like the newest gpodder 0.10 no longer uses DefaultHandler.
I'm going to spin up some locally built test packages of gpodder 0.10 for F7 and
development. I'll post again with the location of the binaries for 0.10 once I
get them built

Okay can you please test this package:
http://jspaleta.fedorapeople.org/Fedora/gpodder-0.10/devel/gpodder-0.10.0-1.fc8.noarch.rpm

I've also rebuilt this against F7:
http://jspaleta.fedorapeople.org/Fedora/gpodder-0.10/F7/gpodder-0.10.0-1.fc7.noarch.rpm

I've done a shallow test of the F7 build locally.  Please test the build meant
for devel and see if it starts up as expected.

Comment 3 Jef Spaleta 2007-10-09 22:40:26 UTC
0.10 now available in development. I've had at least one additional tester
confirm that the application properly starts up. Closing ticket.
