Yes, I launched gPodder from Unity icon. But with the symlink in addition it works well :)

Hi Xavier, 2012/5/28 Xavier Guillot <Valeryan_24@xxxxxxxxxxx>:But when I run Gpodder after this, it does not apply the new settings, it still goes to /home/gPodderIt could be that when you start gPodder (via some menu icon I assume?) that it won't read your ~/.bashrc. The easiest way would be to just create a symlink (using ln -s /path/to/your/real/directory/ ~/gPodder) and be done with it. If you want to avoid having a "gPodder" symlink in your $HOME, make sure that the environment variable is available to your whole session (by putting it into /etc/environment or /etc/profile I assume?).

What and where is GPODDER_HOME environment variable and how to mofify it, please ? Is it in .bashrc file ? I am on Ubuntu 12.04Yes, you can put it into your .bashrc like that: export GPODDER_HOME=/mnt/Disk-1L/Loisirs/gPodder/I also read that I have to do a symlink between /mnt/Disk-1L/Loisirs/Podcasts and /home/valeryan24/gPodder/Downloads : is it true, and what is the command ? ln -s and which order ?Yes, that's the alternative to setting GPODDER_HOME on Linux: ln -s /mnt/Disk-1L/Loisirs/Podcasts ~/gPodder Be sure to backup your downloads and database just in case.
