Hello,

I have been having some trouble recently with launching gpodder3 on my
system. More precisely, the software no longer starts and outputs the
following error on the command line.

$:~> gpodder
1590319743.543078 [gpodder.log] ERROR: Uncaught exception: Traceback

ValueError: Namespace Gdk not available for version 3.0

Now, it turns out that after some googling, my system was missing two
required packages: typelib-1_0-Gtk-3_0 and python3-pycairo . I also had
to install manually python3-gobject-Gdk before that to solve another error.
However, despite turning out to be essential, I did not see any of these
packages in the Requires: section of the spec file. Would it be worth it
for you to add them, or is it just my system configuration which is to
blame?

Best regards,
