iPod sync with Banshee is broken in Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx since HAL is now D-Bus activated and does not have an init script. This bug was fixed by Banshee developers last night but isn't yet available anywhere - except GIT.
So here is a short guide to compile the latest podsleuth from Git in Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx.
1. Install the dependencies required to compile Podsleuth
2. Get podsleuth from GIT:
3. Compile podsleuth
And finally, install it with:
sudo apt-get install git-core automake libmono-dev libndesk-dbus-glib1.0-cil-dev libndesk-dbus1.0-cil-dev libhal-dev libdbus-1-dev libsgutils2-dev mono-mcs mono-gmcs
2. Get podsleuth from GIT:
git clone git://git.gnome.org/podsleuth
3. Compile podsleuth
cd podsleuth
./autogen.sh && ./configure --prefix=/usr && make
And finally, install it with:
sudo make install
