The crash is still there. My solution was to give up on using an iPod on Ubuntu, and since I didn't want to give up on Ubuntu, I bought a cheap Sony MP3 player and wrote a small mtp-sync utility which synchronises my tablet and MP3 player with my gPodder directory hierarchy.
This solved my problem, but this required a knowledge of PHP, C, libmtp and mtp-tools so is not a general user solution. It does seem a shame that between Apple and Ubuntu, we can't get a workable iPod solution for Ubuntu that doesn't crater leaving the iPod internal music directory corrupt. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/992815 Title: rhythmbox crash when managing podcast ipod after Ubuntu 12.04 LTS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bug/992815/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
