[Pdx-pm] Weak References and DVD::RIP

I just installed dvdrip -- via a yum install from the dag repository -- 
on a CentOS 5 system (with some Fedora Core 6 packages - in case that 
makes a difference.)

When I try to start dvdrip from the command line I get these errors:

Weak references are not implemented in the version of perl at 
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/Gtk2/Ex/FormFactory/Widget.pm line 5

Which version of Perl do I need to get "Weak References" and ... what 
the heck are they in this context?

I also tried installing Dag's perl-WeakRef package but got no joy from that.


Thanks,
Rod
