Yes, definitely :)

Ok, I will look into it as soon as I see it available. I really like
the simplicity of gtkpod (I don't have to do imports and other boring
stuff: just copy over the files and sync!)

This is my complete sources.list:
"""
deb http://ftp.es.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main
deb http://ftp.es.debian.org/debian/ wheezy contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.es.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main
deb-src http://ftp.es.debian.org/debian/ wheezy contrib non-free

deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main
"""

On a note: to share bandwidth (and to speed up things) when I travel I
change the mirror's two letter country code via an homemade script
(which geolocates the IP, or at least it tries to). So sometimes it is
ftp.es.debian.org, sometimes .it. and sometimes something else. When
it changes the system is instructed to run a sudo apt-get update to
rebuild everything. I don't know if this might be the source of the
problem, but it seems to me it shouldn't (in a perfect world, I know).
