Having experimented with getting gip working on another machine running the new distro I can say that the only package I need in addition to those installed by default by the distro is the libxml-libxml-perl. This is for me to use gip via 'command line'. (Actually a simple 'ROX' program I wrote that will launch a set of gip fetches given a text file list of their pids, called by command.) Thanks for the advice, etc. :-) Jim -- Electronics https://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/~www_pa/Scots_Guide/intro/electron.htm Armstrong Audio http://www.audiomisc.co.uk/Armstrong/armstrong.html biog http://jcgl.orpheusweb.co.uk/history/ups_and_downs.html Audio Misc http://www.audiomisc.co.uk/index.html _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list get_iplayer@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
