Bug Description

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

When downloading from a podcast RSS feed that uses redirects, Rhythmbox fails to save it with the proper name.
For example:
http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3?http://x96.com/ondemand/2009/RFH011110am9.mp3
gets downloaded as "redirect.mp3" instead of "RFH011110am9.mp3". As a side effect, since every file now gets downloaded with the same name, you end up with one single file instead of all the files.

In Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic) this problem did not happen. It only started occurring once I upgraded to 10.04 (Lucid) Alpha. My podcast directory has dozens of files all named correctly from before I upgraded.
