These are for cluster mode only and are not loaded by the dvd::rip GUI 
program.

That's a pure Perl module on top of Gtk2.

These are the Perl modules which bind the gtk C library.

I think this is due to a known bug in tcmodinfo which crashes for some 
transcode modules. You see this only for the first dvd::rip startup 
because dvd::rip cashes the results of tcmodinfo and doesn't start it 
again later.

Hmm, sounds more like RPM internals to me...

You could test Gtk2::Ex::FormFactory by downloading its source from 
here:

  http://www.exit1.org/download/ff

extract the tarball and run the shipped test program, like so:

  % tar xvfz Gtk2-Ex-FormFactory-0.59.tar.gz
  % cd Gtk2-Ex-FormFactory-0.59/examples
  % ./testapp.pl

The last command opens a small window with a notebook and some test 
forms. Nothing special, but lets see if this segfaults as well.

Regards,

Joern
