Using the gPodder bundle

About

This is a native (no X11) OS X 10.6 version of gPodder as a standalone application. It builds on the good work from jralls on GTK+/OSX, to build a native GTK stack on OS X and package a GTK application as an Mac OS X application. And of course, it wouldn't be there for the existence of gPodder itself, thanks to Thomas Perl and the other gPodder contributors.

Requirements

• a Mac with a 64 bits x86 hardware (eg. Intel Core 2 Duo);
• Snow Leopard (10.6) or later.

2. Unzip and see the friendly violet icon
