Please remove the manually installed gPodder version ("make uninstall"),
then remove the gPodder Ubuntu package. Please also double-check that
you have not got any leftover gPodder files in your /usr/local/ folder
that might have been left back while you tried installing gPodder by
hand. You have to delete these files manually or else Python might not
use the correct gPodder Python modules.
Now, follow the instructions on http://gpodderwiki.jottit.com/faq for
the question:
"I believe my gPodder configuration is currupted - how do I start
out with a fresh config?"
After you have done that, go to
http://www.getdeb.net/app.php?name=gPodder and download the gPodder
0.10.1 package there. Install it on your system and start gPodder.
