Please backport gpodder package

[Rafael F.]

gPodder (http://www.gpodder.org/) is an excellent piece of software that is useful to manage audio and video podcasts. Version 0.11.3 was released on 2008-06-01. There is an Intrepid package already. I have tested the new version on another distro and it really has some nice performance improvements as well as new functionality. It looks as if the only dependencies are python libraries already present in hardy, as far as I can tell from here -> http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/gpodder
Please consider this backport.
Thanks

I have been running gPodder 0.11.3 from Intrepid in Hardy for a couple of weeks now without any issue. It installs and runs perfectly.
Version 0.12 was released a couple of days ago and I recently upgraded to it. There is already a Debian Sid package, which I'm testing, that installs and runs fine. See http://packages.debian.org/sid/gpodder.
I don't know if it could be included in Intrepid or if this is the place to ask for it.
Version 0.12 feels much faster due to a database migration to SQLite so it might be the case that it is backwards incompatible.
Since I'm testing it I could report any issues but I haven't run into any at all.
Please consider this package. There are some nice performance and user interface improvements going on as well as updated translations.
I'm attaching a screenshot ;-)
