I agree. Please, this time (as we're rebuilding Amarok) let's sync it with 
the imminent update of libmtp soname found in 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=359401
if you have a BZ ticket for libgpod then reference this to the libmtp 
update please.

libmtp is the same. Just recompile.

No no no.... as mentioned for libmtp we WANT to support the latest and 
greatest hardware. It is worth soname breakage.

Nope.
