Binary package hint: gtkpod-aac

This is a combination of #135178 and #145506, being handled as one SRU for timeliness. They are independent patches and I will detail testing information for both.

==== PERTAINING TO #135178 =====
 The new upstream gtkpod release tries to implement the "Group" metadata field for MP4, which requires a newer libmp4v2 than Gutsy has. This causes ./configure to build without AAC/MP4 support. The patch I provide reverts to previous Gtkpod behavior of ignoring the "Group" metadata tag for .mp4 files.

TEST CASE:
Try to use gtkpod to add a .mp4 file onto an iPod.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:
Gtkpod adds the file to your iPod

DEFECTIVE BEHAVIOR:
Gtkpod informs user that it was compiled without mp4 support.

ALTERNATE TEST (i.e. non iPod owners):
Look at build log output at the end of ./configure phase

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:
./configure reports that it will build with MP4/AAC support

DEFECTIVE BEHAVIOR:
./configure reports that it will build without MP4/AAC support
This description was updated.

===== PERTAINING TO #145506 =======
DESCRIPTION:
Newly created local repositories are not set as "imported" internally, which causes gtkpod to output a nonsensical error about inserting an iPod (which doesn't exist for local repos at all) before adding tracks. A patch was picked out of gtkpod's svn that addresses this issue specifically by setting the local repositories' "imported" flag.

VERIFICATION: (no iPod necessary)
Remove ~/.gtkpod -- that is, start with a fresh configuration. Open up Gtkpod and click the Local repository. On the tool bar, click either Add File or Add Dir

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:
A dialog comes up to choose what to add

DEFECTIVE BEHAVIOR:
An error box pops up asking you to insert an iPod.
