Copyright (c) 2005-2006 Thomas Perl <thp@perli.net>
Version 0.5 released on 04.02.2006 under the GNU GPL
This version includes a patch from 05.02.2006.
============================
1) What's new in version 0.6

* Object-oriented code

===============
2) Dependencies
===============
Debian/Ubuntu users can install the dependencies with:
apt-get install python python-glade2 python-gtk2 wget
Other users: Please install the above packages somehow ;)
If you want to install gPodder from source, you have to
get the following packages:
apt-get install help2man
=====================
3) How to run/install
=====================
Extract the tar archive somewhere into your home directory and cd into
the directory where you extracted it, for example:
tar xzvf gpodder-0.5.tar.gz
cd gpodder-0.5/
After that you can start gPodder 0.5 by starting it with the following
command:
make test
If this works out, close gPodder again and install it system-wide:
sudo make install
This will install gPodder in standard locations. After the installation
routine (hopefully) finished successfully, you might run gPodder from
any path on your machine by simply typing:
gpodder
If you have any problems, please visit the gPodder website or mail the
gPodder mailing list (see below for more information).
=============
4) How to use
=============
gPodder was designed with usability in mind. Saying that gPodder is
self-explaining saves me from writing long documentation. Watch out
for the gPodder website. If you need more information, please mail
our gPodder mailing list :)
=============
5) Known bugs
=============
No known bug so far. Please mail the mailing list or the author directly
to report bugs - we'll try to fix them in the next release :) Thanks!
=========================================
6) Feature requests, bug reports, patches

anything that comes to your mind relating gPodder:
