Yo Kewpie! Can't get lsdvd to install.


Yeah so I unpacked it and did:

./configure

and it spits out:

creating cache ./config.cache
checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes
checking for working aclocal-1.4... found
checking for working autoconf... found
checking for working automake-1.4... found
checking for working autoheader... found
checking for working makeinfo... found
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler (gcc -g ) works... yes
checking whether the C compiler (gcc -g ) is a cross-compiler... no
checking whether we are using GNU C... yes
checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes
checking for DVDOpen in -ldvdread... no
configure: error: libdvdread not found!

I do have libdvdread installed:

rpm -qa | grep libdvdread

returns:

libdvdread-0.9.4-fr3

So what switches do I have to add to ./configure to make it find libdvdread.

After installing libdvdread did you update using ldconfig? Also what directory is it located in? Most of the time it might install to /usr/local/lib but needs to be in /usr/lib. If that's the case, I usually just create a link to it's location, etc.

locate libdvdread

returns:

/usr/lib/libdvdread.so.3
/usr/lib/libdvdread.so.3.0.0
/usr/share/doc/libdvdread-0.9.4
/usr/share/doc/libdvdread-0.9.4/AUTHORS
/usr/share/doc/libdvdread-0.9.4/COPYING
/usr/share/doc/libdvdread-0.9.4/NEWS
/usr/share/doc/libdvdread-0.9.4/README
/usr/share/doc/libdvdread-0.9.4/TODO

I installed it via apt. I did not update ldconfig because I assumed that rpm took care of that.

Okay I ran:

/sbin/ldconfig

and I'm still getting the errors. Where is acid_kewpie? I thought he would have jumped right on this one.

http://rpm.livna.org/redhat/9/i386/RPMS.stable/

There is an RPM for it. I don't use it or know what it is for but I installed it on a RH 9 machine and it went right in.

Well I got passed issue #1. I had to install libdvdread-devel for ./configure to work. Now its throwing an error:

bash# perl Makefile.PL

Checking for Gtk2.. failed
-------------------------------------------------------
Can't locate Gtk2.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0 .) at (eval 2) line 3.

Gtk2 is needed, it implements the perl bindings to Gtk+2.
The module is called Gtk2-Perl on CPAN or module gnome-perl in the Gnome CVS.
In the future acidrip will be able to run from a command line, so this will not be mandatory.
This has not been implemented yet though.
We need at least version 0.98

Running additional test to be sure acidrip will work

Everything looks good here...

Yet again I do have Gtk2 installed.

I too am having the exact same error. I double checked and Gtk2 is installed, yet not detected during install? Where is the magic button Kewpie? :-) I want to play with acidrip bad...

Having same problem...

When I finaly comes to the part when you tryto install acidrip, I get this:
____________________________________________________________
# perl Makefile.PL
Checking for Gtk2.. failed
-------------------------------------------------------
Can't locate Gtk2.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.1/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.1 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.1/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.1 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi
... ... ... (and so on)
____________________________________________________________
# slocate Gtk.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/Gtk.pm
____________________________________________________________

To me the paths looks quite similar... has anyone solved this?

No anwser at the Forums at Sourceforge, and onthing here (so long)

Are you sure you install both Gtk2 and Glib for Gtk2 so acidrip will detect and install? I always suggest to install the source, not RPM, etc.

http://gtk2-perl.sourceforge.net/

You can download the two latest packages from here: http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...group_id=64773

And see the man pages, documentation here for both:

Gtk2: http://gtk2-perl.sourceforge.net/doc/pod/Gtk2.html

Glib: http://gtk2-perl.sourceforge.net/doc/pod/Glib.html

I've installed the latest acidrip on Slackware 9.1 and will be working on the latest Installation Howto for acidrip with the updated packages required, etc for acid_kewpie.

The totally outdated and old install howto can be found at www.jabentley.com/docs/acidrip-howto.html

O.k. On my third attempt at installing all of this I run into the following problem.

I installed the ExtUtils-Depends and ExtUtils-Pkg and libdvdread and lsdvd and gtk2-perl and so forth, and I have confirmed I have both Gtk2 and Gtk as well the other requirements listed in the Install instructions. Yet I still get the error:

bash# perl Makefile.PL

Checking for Gtk2.. failed
-------------------------------------------------------

Is there anything I should be doing differently. I spent over 5 hours attempting this and am at my wits end. Where should I look next for the problem? On the safe side I installed every single package on the source dvd that even mensioned Perl or Gtk.
