Binary package hint: rhythmbox

1. Import an MP3 file into Rhythmbox, if there is not at least one already.
2. Connect a Mac-formatted iPod.
3. Drag an MP3 file onto the iPod icon in the sidebar.

What happens: Nothing. The iPod appears to accept the drag-and-drop, but the file is not copied.

What should happen:
* the MP3 file is copied onto the iPod, OR
* you are prompted to reformat the iPod (in Windows format), then the previous contents of the iPod are restored, then the MP3 file is copied onto the iPod, OR
* (at the very least) an error message is displayed explaining that the iPod cannot be used with Ubuntu because it is Mac-formatted.
