Can someone help me before i put my fist through my monitor! i've been trying to install dvdrip for a few days now and everytime i run it i get the error

Quote:
Can't locate Gtk2.pm
i know from looking that it's to do with GTK2-Perl but ive tried downloading in both tgz and src format yet eachtime i run i recieve the above error?

Please has anyone any experience with this?

I had the same problem, but if you will read the README file in the dvdrip directory it tells you how to load these perl modules needed (i.e. Gtk2) and any other prerequisites. Go to search.cpan.org/ and search for any perl module(s) you need and compile them as the README suggests. Should get you there.
