2.82-2 includes a patch for that issue.

A URL dependency in the get_iplayer code has apparently been changed recently (5 Jun) by the BBC. Details, including the command line workaround, are available here: lists.infradead.org/pipermail/get_iplayer/2013-June/004206.html

Optional dependency stuff is mostly guessed at from looking through the code.

An additional opt depend: "XML::Simple: Series and Brand pid parsing"

I have an updated version of this PKGBUILD, with a working .desktop file for the web PVR manager. Similar to Debian's get_iplayer_web_pvr, but it adds another script file to automatically open the users preferred browser at the managers address. Let me know if anyone if you want it uploaded. Only issue is the icon, I'm using one from the iPlayer site.

Please add "atomicparsley", "id3v2" and "mplayer" as opt depend to this and the get_iplayer-git package.

perl-net-http is also needed.

I'm also getting the same error that @Chris_tian posted.

There seems to be one further dependency: perl-http-cookies Without this package I get the following error if I try to start get_iplayer: Can't locate HTTP/Cookies.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/share/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib/perl5/core_perl /usr/share/perl5/core_perl .) at /usr/bin/get_iplayer line 60.
