Download your podcast with hpodder

If you listen to podcasts, you probably already know about hpodder. Hpodder is a command line pod catcher that downloads and organize your collection of podcast. Unfortunately for SheevaPlug users hpodder is not in the repository. So I'm here to tell you how to download and compile your own hpodder.

First download the source to hpodder from here. In my case, I downloaded version 1.1.5 because it is the latest one at the time. Uncompress the download file.

Prerequisites

There are a number of packages you need to download first before you can compile hpodder. These packages are listed in the INSTALL file. But here they are for your convenience.

 * GHC 6.6          http://www.haskell.org/ghc
 * Curl             http://curl.haxx.se
 * id3v2            http://download.sourceforge.net/id3v2/id3v2-0.1.11.tar.gz
 * hslogger         http://software.complete.org/hslogger
 * MissingH 0.18.0  http://software.complete.org/missingh
   hpodder also uses these libraries that MissingH also depends upon:
   FilePath, mtl
 * ConfigFile       http://software.complete.org/configfile
 * Sqlite3          http://www.sqlite.org/
 * HDBC-sqlite3     http://quux.org/devel/hdbc
 * HaXml>=1.13.2    http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/fp/HaXml/
 * HDBC             http://quux.org/devel/hdbc

so download these packages with

sudo apt-get install ghc curl id3 libsqlite3-0 libghc6-hdbc-dev libghc6-haxml-dev libghc6-parsec-dev libghc6-hsql-sqlite3-dev
