as of now, the simplest way to install get-iplayer on a raspberry pi is:

$ sudo apt-get install get-iplayer ffmpeg atomicparsley libmp3-info-perl

(if I recall correctly this wouldn't have worked a few months ago when
you started writing this stuff up)

all this will actually do is give people access to more recent
versions of rtmpdump, AtomicParsley and get-iplayer.  This does have
advantages, in that rtmpdump should work better (particularly on fast
connections), AtomicParsley will support a few more tags, and
get-iplayer has the various fixes since 2.82.  But it works reasonably
well out of the box now.
