Topic: Problem running get_iplayer

Hi,

I've just installed Statler and having a few teething problems...

I'm trying to run the get_iplayer script and receive the following error message:

Can't locate HTML/Entities.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.1 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.1 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /home/kino/bin/get_iplayer line 56.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /home/kino/bin/get_iplayer line 56.

line 56 is:
use HTML::Entities;

any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Problem running get_iplayer

did you install it from the repos ? i ask because its in your home folder, if you didn't try installing the dependencies
which just looks to be libwww-perl.

No, it wasn't installed from the repos - just copied over from 9.04 where it works fine!
As far as I can see, the dependencies have all been installed...

Re: Problem running get_iplayer

well im not really a perl user, but that looks like a dependency problem to me, whay don't you try installing it from the debian repos, see if that version works?
