Re: [xml] building libxml2 on HP

[Rozi Kovesdi <rozi att com>]

Hi,

Here is my report in someone else runs into the same problem:

Finally I am done with installing all the libraries and XML  Perl modules

The combination that worked best for me was:
gcc
GNU make

Most important -  before trying to  install Perl modules that depend on libxml2:

must set SHLIB_PATH  to include  the path to  libxml2 shared library

assuming that you used the default:

export  SHLIB=/usr/local/lib

also, make sure that the config  files have execute permission:

/usr/local/bin/xml2-config
/usr/local/bin/xslt-config

they did not have +x after they were installed by 'make install'
and it took me a while to realize that this was my problem

or one can use:

perl Makefile.PL LIBS='-L/path/to/lib' INC='-I/path/to/include'


thank you all for helping,

Rozi Kovesdi
