My only outdated package is [ebuild U ] sys-devel/gcc-3.2.1-r6 [3.2.1-r0] the rest are all upto latest, as this moment. when I run dvdrip, I get the following: shane ~>dvdrip & [1] 18188 shane ~> You're using Perl 5.8.0 without PERLIO set to 'stdio'. Most Perl 5.008 installations currently have a bug. dvd::rip doesn't work with them if PERLIO isn't set. I will set PERLIO=stdio for you and restart dvd::rip... You can get rid of this messages, by setting PERLIO=stdio in your ~/.profile, or whatever your shell uses.

Did you emerge gtk-perl before or after your perl 5.8 install? I just manually re-emerged the perl deps for dvdrip, ran the 20 odd dep installs for it (don't use gnome - no reason to have had them previously), and emerge dvdrip without a problem. Not having much use for the app, I poked around at the menus and pretty dvd::rip logo, but near as I could tell runs fine. Also - which version (-r) of perl 5.8 are you using? Did you enable threading? And I never got the stdio error (and I wrote the perl 5.8 ebuild).
* dev-perl/gtk-perl Latest version available: 0.7008-r9 Latest version installed: 0.7008-r9 * sys-devel/perl Latest version available: 5.8.0-r5 Latest version installed: 5.8.0-r5 * media-video/dvdrip Latest version available: 0.48.5 Latest version installed: 0.48.5 I say gtk-perl was installed after perl, because I only recently emerged dvdrip (which I think emerged gtk-perl as well), but perl would have been emerged before for a number of other packages. Having said that, I'm not 100% sure. I didn't enable threading for perl, I just did it in the normal way (emerge perl). Just in case this is related, I'm using the following GCC flags. CFLAGS="-march=athlon-tbird -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -mmmx -m3dnow" finally, can you tell me how to _just_ re-emerge the perl dependencies of dvdrip (emerge -e perl ?), and should I enable threading ?
The easiest way I know to re-emerge the deps is to more the ebuild for dvdrip and in pull out the three lines from the DEPEND block for perl deps and hand emerge them (not -u, literrally force the emerge over again). Enabling threading in perl is an 'at your own risk' thing. I made it optional in the ebuild for the die-hard perl folks who wanted it, but it can complicate normal perl deps. (ie, there are some cases where it simply won't work).
The problem is fixed :-) My dvdrip now starts up, I haven't tested it or done anything else yet, but atleast it now starts. I did the following: emerge -C Storable emerge -C Event emerge perl gnome-libs gdk-pixbuf gtk-perl Storable Event gtk-perl dvdrip NO ebuild modification is necessary, and all packages are the latest versions to this moment. I also updated other packages (such as gcc) to latest version, which could have indeed been the solution. No threading support for perl. Finally, as you can see gtk-perl is reinstalled twice in last line! I'm gonna test the dvdrip soon as well, but as far as I'm concerned this bug is resolved. Thanks
The above instruction fixes the problem for me too.
Is dvdrip continuing to give anyone problems?
* sys-devel/perl Latest version available: 5.8.0-r8 Latest version installed: 5.8.0-r8 * media-video/dvdrip Latest version available: 0.48.5 Latest version installed: 0.48.5 * dev-perl/gtk-perl Latest version available: 0.7008-r9 Latest version installed: 0.7008-r9 I have had no problems running dvdrip. I don't think I emerged perl with threads enabled.
Initial reporter claims it is fixed, and no other people surfaced with the problem remaining.
