Upgrade to Banshee 0.11.0 on SLED10
A few weeks before releasing iTunes 7, Apple rolled out a firmware update for iPod devices.

Updating to the latest Banshee does more than simply fix connectivity with any iPod devices that you might have mistakenly updated. It will also get you new plugins, including the aforementioned podcast plugin. (This is where the Amarok/KDE users chuckle about my foolish fascination with Banshee/Mono/GNOME. Fairly, I suppose. Amarok has had a podcatcher for quite some time.)
Finally. before I get into my version, the Mighty Aaron Bockover put his procedure on the Banshee wiki, but it looks like his instructions paint with very broad strokes. I wanted to get a little more specific. If they are more helpful, then I’ll move them into the wiki. So, here are the setup instructions, as best I could get them in a first draft.
