Needed libkrb53 from Jaunty too. By the way - if you want to rip and encode two CDs in one go with Grip, have two desktop icons, each launching grip with slightly different parameters: grip --device=/dev/sr0 grip --device=/dev/sr1 You can't configure grip to do this as it uses one config file.

I also wanted to install GRIP in Karmic. I've been using only GRIP since around 2002 or so and I want it back to Ubuntu. It is so annoying to find out "odd" changes in the new system. GRIP is a mature application, with all the needed functions, so, why it has to be updated? To fix bugs or secure holes I agree, but since there are (im guessing) so few in GRIP, why then exclude it from Karmic?<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('5720','Max'); return false;">Reply</a> | <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('5720','Max','Thanks for this information.

In case anyone else stumbles across this, I wanted to point out that WordPress collapses two consecutive hyphens into a single en-dash (by default). The line

Encoder::fullCommand = lame –nohist –preset extreme

should be

Encoder::fullCommand = lame ‑‑nohist ‑‑preset extreme
