[Bug 496681] Re: Rhythmbox does not save playlist on iPod

2010-01-17 Thread Thomas Ibbotson
I just spent an hour creating a playlist on my iPod only to find out later that the playlist could not be saved, so I lost an hour's work. This is unacceptable, Rhythmbox should not allow you to create a playlist on the iPod if it cannot be saved, or should at least warn you that you will lose it

The root cause of this is a bug in Vim itself. This has been fixed in the patch 7.2.097. So you can either compile Vim yourself including the patch, or wait until it makes it into Ubuntu (which might be some time). Here's a link to the mailing list thread where it was discussed:
