Package: podracer
Version: 1.3-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
If an RSS feed in the subscriptions file is redirected to an other
location, podracer does not follow this redirection and thus fails to
fetch the actual RSS XML file.
Example URL: http://leo.am/podcasts/twit
The problem can be fixed by supplying the "-L" option to "curl" when
the RSS files are fetched. See the patch below.
