Title: perl xml parser
Post by: jpeters on January 20, 2009, 03:08:24 PM

I was trying to configure intltool-0-40.5, and got stuck on:

Code: [Select]

XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool
I've loaded perl5.tczl, perl_xml.tcz, and played around with exporting LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but no luck.
Is there a way to get this working?  Thanks

John

You shouldn't load both perl5 and perl_xml; it's possible that the configure script found the wrong one.

That aside, do you need 0.40? 0.35.5 is in autotools.tcz

It seems to be looking at /usr/local/bin/perl, which is used for perl5.8.8. That didn't work, so I linked it to /usr/local/bin/perl15.10.0 which didn't work either. 

edit: actually, I think perl5.8.8  is put in /usr/bin....I'll try that.
edit2  That did the trick!!  Thanks

  That might work, although I'd still like to know if there's something I should be doing differently.
Thanks

I just ran into a problem again with perl_xml, and revisited this thread. Perl5.tczl is a dependency for apps like cups, so it's likely to be loaded along with perl_xml. I found that perl_xml.tcz won't work, although perl_xml.tce will.  Are you saying that perl_xml can replace perl5 dependencies?  (if so, it's 3.6M lighter).

I made the perl_xml extension - basically perl plus the xml parser perl module - for compiling use. The perl5 (with shared lib) was intended for general use.

This being said, the perl_xml extension might well fit your needs.

why not change cups dep file? change perl5 to perl_xml.
