[xslt] FW: make error with XML-LibXSLT-1.57 & libxslt-1.1.4

["Geoff Ellis" <geoff metalogicplc com>]

I'm forwarding this thread to you in the hope someone might be able to help.

Basically, I'm trying to install XML-LibXSLT-1.57 on a debian linux box
running perl 5.6.1

I've installed both the latest libxml2 and libxslt modules with a little
force to be honest. But I can confirm they are both installed.

When I try to install the XML-LibXSLT-1.57 perl module, I get this error and
was wondering if anyone could help me figure it out, c libraries are really
not my forte......the error I'm currently getting is as follows..

Thanks

Geoff.

I just tried to recompile libxslt-1.1.4 ant it went well without a single
warning (I used ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --without-python).

One of the lines in ./configure output is a check for libxml2 version,
but I guess that's alright (anyway, check it just for sure).

These look really strange. But they are all warnings, aren't they?

ditto for the above. Strange, but just warnings. Maybe they're just
harmless (although my gcc doesn't report them). You might try to pick
one of the lines, and have look at how's the function prototyped and
what parameters are passed to it on that particular line. If they
matches, it's just your compiler going crazy.

Maybe you could also check that /home/emetal/siteroot/inc doesn't
contain xslt.h or simiar (again, just to make sure the .c files
compile against the correct prototypes in the .h headers).

Again, I don't get these, but this is just a documentation, and you
could possibly live without it.

And does the make finally fail or succeed? If it doesn't end up with
an error, you could try make install and then check on some xml/xslt
sample that xsltproc tool works alright.

I understand. Unfortunately (for you :-)), I have much newer setup, so
I can't reproduce the problems on my box, so my advice is mostly a
blind guess and may be quite inaccurate :-( You might try the
xml@gnome.org/xslt@gnome.org mailing lists too, there are more users,
some of them might have a similar setup as you.
