Package: get-iplayer
Version: 2.97-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Auntie has broken get-iplayer again, a couple of times since the
latest packaged release, actually.  As things stand, it can no longer
download indices or programme metadata.  This could be fixed by
packaging version 3.01, which at the time of report is the latest
version.  Note that upstream warns that get_iplayer is getting
increasingly fragile, and more frequent updates are likely.

The breakage has a major impact on get-iplayer's usability; the PVR
feature is entirely broken, as is searching for programmes, and even
downloading by URL no longer provides metadata with which to name
files.
