Comment 3 for bug 193722

I can confirm. I will say that I fixed it by looking at the script and then loading up the appropriate packages. The problem is that one of the podcasts that I was listening to switched to OGG format and I wasn't aware of the change.

Because of the missing package, gtkpod locked up because it couldn't handle the dependencies and wouldn't allow me to safely shut it down or do something else, like save the database until that dependency was satisfied. It just kept trying to process the OGG files that I was synching (among many other MP3s) and would not skip the OGG files.

So maybe there is some way to make it handle this situation more gracefully in the future if someone doesn't install the lame, faac, or faad packages. Perhaps, it could suggest (ala the multi-media codec suggestions) these packages when it encounters files that aren't supported by the default install.
