The gtkpod package from FreshRPMS required an update libgpod, which
FreshRPMS also provided (as libgpod-0.4.0).  This overrode the core
libgpod-0.3.0 package in an incompatible way.  Now that libgpod has
finally been updated in core (to libgpod-0.4.2, and a
compat-libgpod-0.3.2), the problem of gtkpod being compiled against a
different libgpod will cause it to segfault on startup.

This wasn't something that could be avoided unfortunately.  Matthias
from FreshRPMS is aware of this and has a new gtkpod built against the
updated libgpod already.  Update to gtkpod-0.99.8-3.fc6.i386.rpm from
FreshRPMS and that should solve your trouble.
