Comment 29 for bug 139226

I mentioned GTKPod only as a reference to the fact that it connects and is otherwise readable except by Banshee.

For some reason one of the updates that came down on June 5th resolved the issue for me. There was a bunch of stuff in there, not sure which one fixed it. Banshee recognized that it was an Ipod, but it didn't recognize which one and automatically redirected me to the Banshee "add and ipod to our database" page. My Ipod support in Banshee is now resolved and is operating as expected.

For fun I tried installing podsleuth-0.6.2 from the link above and I get a mono dependency problem. Looks like Hardy has Mono 1.2.6 and Podsleuth is looking for 1.1.10... I'm a relative Linux newb, please be patient if this is a newb mistake.

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables MONO_MODULE_CFLAGS
and MONO_MODULE_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
