@carukia Their website (http) is up but their FTP is down. I've emailed them to make sure they know. In the meantime, if you're desperate to get get_iplayer installed, install the git version which is still accessible: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=48774

I'm getting the following error - Connecting to ftp.infradead.org|85.118.1.10|:21... failed: Connection refused.

Can't reproduce your error GalacticArachnid - are you getting the error on building or running? Is your system (particularly perl-html-parser package) up-to-date? My Parser.so sits in /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/auto/HTML/Parser/Parser.so Are you using a different version to the extra repo?

Removal of Perl_Istack_sp_ptr in latest perl update (5.14.1-1) breaks package.. /usr/bin/perl: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/auto/HTML/Parser/Parser.so: undefined symbol: Perl_Istack_sp_ptr

Didn't have any of those, so just rebuilt the -git. Cracking job, thanks for sorting that so quickly.

Looks like I was a bit too eager to cut down the dependencies that namcap said the package didn't need. Check you have the following installed: perl-libwww perl-html-parser perl-www-mechanize or just rebuild (I've updated the PKGBUILD but not bumped release num)

Further to my last, just tried the git version with the same result.

Seems to be broken again: -- $get_iplayer Can't locate HTML/Entities.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 59. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/get_iplayer line 59. -- Is this related to psychedelicious' post below?

I've changed this package to the _official_ release. GIT version is now separate package get_iplayer-git https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=48774

This needs updating, the BBC flash player url has changed
