GTKpod doesn't work anymore

When I try to run gtkpod:

austin@austin-desktop ~ % gtkpod
gtkpod: error while loading shared libraries: libimobiledevice.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
austin@austin-desktop ~ %

But it's installed:

austin@austin-desktop ~ % y -Qi libimobiledevice
Name           : libimobiledevice
Version        : 1.0.0-1
....

When I try to recompile GTKpod:

......
checking for library containing id3_frame_field... no
configure: error: *** id3tag >= 0.15 lib not found (0.14 will not work!)
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
==> ERROR: Build Failed.
    Aborting...
Error: Makepkg was unable to build gtkpod-git package.

But that's also installed...

austin@austin-desktop ~ % y -Qi libid3tag
Name           : libid3tag
Version        : 0.15.1b-4
....

Any suggestions?

Re: GTKpod doesn't work anymore

Have you tried building the stable instead of the git version?

Re: GTKpod doesn't work anymore

Yes, it does the same thing (used yaourt -Sb).

EDIT: Actually, no, it does this

Forgot about that. I'll try from ABS instead of yaourt -Sb and see if it's any different.

EDIT: ABS does the same thing:

Looks like Allan broke something

EDIT: Weird, seems as if I can download the file from Firefox but not with Makepkg, got any explanation for that?

EDIT: So that fixes that, but it still gives the same error as the -git package, unfortunately:

checking for library containing id3_frame_field... no
configure: error: *** id3tag >= 0.15 lib not found (0.14 will not work!)
==> ERROR: Build Failed.

Re: GTKpod doesn't work anymore

I'd try using makepkg or another pacman wrapper (clyde works fine for me).
My output compiling gtkpod is:

checking for library containing id3_frame_field... -lid3tag
checking for CURL... yes
...
==> Finished making: gtkpod-git 20100406-1 i686 (Tue Apr  6 12:34:19 CEST 2010)

pacman -Qs id3
local/easytag 2.1.6-3
local/id3lib 3.8.3-10
local/libid3tag 0.15.1b-4

hope that helps

Re: GTKpod doesn't work anymore

Well, I resorted to doing this:

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libimobiledevice.so.1 /usr/lib/libimobiledevice.so.0

And now gtkpod will at least start (still can't compile for some reason). Now to see if it will work with my iTouch (which it used to). EDIT: Seems it does work, dirty hack though So half solved...

Re: GTKpod doesn't work anymore

What bugs me is that, on Ubuntu, the iPoT automounts via gvfs / libgpod and is accessible in rhythmbox, whereas in arch I have to "ifuse /media/ipod" it to mount the media partition, and Rhythmbox doesn't detect it at all.

Re: GTKpod doesn't work anymore

Yeah, Rhythmbox doesn't see mine either (and I also have to manually mount it, but that might be a Gnome thing that automounts it in Ubuntu). Also, does GTKpod work for transferring videos to iTouch/iPhone? I just tried and it didn't seem to work, but I think my converted video file might have been screwed up. I'm trying again but need to let it finish transcoding.
