After having tried dvdrip-0.89.8, I jumped to 0.98.10-r2 in the hope to find a fixed version. But this version still does not work for me, dvdrip conflicts with its own dependcy, "ExecFlow", but see also https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=255269 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: #emerge -uD dvdrip
examing the "build.log", I found the following: : >>> Unpacking source... : >>> Unpacking dvdrip-0.98.8.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/media-video/dvdrip-: 0.98.8/work : >>> Source unpacked in /var/tmp/portage/media-video/dvdrip-0.98.8/work : >>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/media-video/dvdrip-0.98.8/work/dvdrip-0.98.8 ... : ^[[32;01m*^[[0m Using ExtUtils::MakeMaker : : Note: : ----- : The following modules are required for dvd::rip but not found on your : system. They're shipped with dvd::rip for your convenience and will be : installed automatically when you run 'make install': : : Event::ExecFlow so, dvdrip cannot find ExecFlow and then adds ExecFlow on its own, despite it _is_ already installed. actually, it has been installed just before attempting to install dvdrip, since it's a dependcy. the question now is: why is dvdrip unable to find the already installed ExecFlow? please not that this bug is open since mid january 2009.
