Greetings,

There was a discussion on fedora-maintainers the other day about
libgpod in core, its age and the status of the python bindings that
come with the upstream package.[1]

I filed one of the BZ's referenced in that thread.[2]  In the comments
there and in the thread on maintainers it seems that the likely way to
get the python bindings built and available to Fedora users is to
build them in extras.

Is that something that seems reasonable to the folks here?  If not,
why not?

An updated libgpod (0.4.0) has made it's way into core (sans the
python bindings) but due to some API/ABI breakage it'll likely wait
for 0.4.1 which bumps the soname of the library and will allow a
libgpod compat package to be built (see the BZ for more discussion of
those details).  In the hopes of getting some testing and stuff worked
out until 0.4.1 is released I built a python-gpod package from 0.4.0.

Anyone care to rip it apart and tell me what sucks about it?
