>Description:
The program dvdrip-master (needed to run dvdrip in cluster mode) fail to locate fping in /usr/local/sbin (it only looks in /usr/bin and /usr/sbin) and thus fails to start. The problem is in the perl package Video::DVDRip::Cluster::Master in the function check_prerequisites. Apparently, someone did not take portability very important. :/
