, which made me an rpm-package. I installed in with
Code:
rpm -Uvh filename.i386.rpm
. Then you were just supposed to be able to type $ acidrip. I tried $ acidrip and # acidrip. None worked. Then I looked in /bin, /usr/bin, /usr/local/bin. I also tried to look through the menus in SuSE.
use "rpm -ql acidrip" to see what it installed where. you do realise that you don't literally type "$ acidrip" yeah? the $ implies you are at a console prompt.
I know that it doesn't actually answer the "acidrip question" but don't you think dvd::rip is easier and faster?
I use dvdrip and it works like charm on Debian and SuSE
SuSEBurken:/usr/src/packages/RPMS/i386 # acidrip
-bash: acidrip: command not found
SuSEBurken:/usr/src/packages/RPMS/i386 #
I got 2 warnings when I ran # perl Makefile.pl the first times. It claimed that I hadden't installed Gtk2 and Glib though I knew I had them installed. The makefile was produced so I didn't think I needed to worry about it. I ran make and checkinstall and rpm --Uvh ... Then I found out that I needed the Gtk2-Perl and Glib-Perl packages. So I uninstalled the rpm with rpm -e acidrip, ran SuSEconfig, installed Gtk2-Perl and Glib-Perl with YaST2 GUI-version, deleted the source-install directory. Unpacked the tar.gz again, ran
Code:
perl Makefile.pl
make
checkinstall
rpm -Uvh acidrip-0.14.i386.rpm
Then this happens:
Code:
SuSEBurken:/usr/src/packages/RPMS/i386 # acidrip
-bash: acidrip: command not found
SuSEBurken:/usr/src/packages/RPMS/i386 #

DVDRIP
perl front end for transcode
dvd::rip is a full featured DVD copy program written in Perl. It provides
an easy to use but feature-rich Gtk+ GUI to control almost all aspects of
the ripping and transcoding process. It uses the widely known video
processing swissknife transcode and many other Open Source tools.
erm.. yes i know. i was just pointing out that as I wrote acidrip, this site officially recommands acidrip over any other dvd ripper or miracle cure for baldness.
