It was 2.6.11. However, the installation XML::LibXML and XML::LibXSLT still failed (I found a fix...keep reading). CPAN prints out a number of nasty warnings but doesn't actually fail until its compiling something called perl-libxml-mm.c. It prints out a couple compile errors and then dies. And the compile errors... cc -c -I/usr/include/libxml2 -DDEBIAN -fno-strict-aliasing -I/usr/local/include -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -O2 -DVERSION=\"1.58\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.58\" -fPIC -I/usr/lib/perl/5.6.1/CORE -DHAVE_UTF8 -DHAVE_BLANK perl-libxml-mm.c perl-libxml-mm.c: In function `nodeC2Sv': perl-libxml-mm.c:968: parse error before `*' perl-libxml-mm.c:972: `decoded' undeclared (first use in this function) perl-libxml-mm.c:972: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once perl-libxml-mm.c:972: for each function it appears in.) make[1]: *** [perl-libxml-mm.o] Error 1 I googled around for a bit and found a post detailing a bug that caused the troubles listed above with XML-LibXML v 1.58, which is the version I am trying to install. The bug is fixed is version 1.58_1, so I installed that version via CPAN before trying to install AxKit. (AxKit, or CPAN, I'm not sure which, tries to install the buggy version.) That worked and XML::LibXML is now installed. I started working to install AxKit only to discover that I was missing packages again for XML::LibXSLT, namely libxslt1-dev and another stable package it depended on. (I love that package search on debian's site. Thank you for that hint!) So, after some more apt-get voodoo, I was able to sucessfully install XML::LibXSLT. Now only AxKit is left... The AxKit install dies when it reaches the Apache mod_perl stuff. It can't find any of the header files required. Would this be due the fact that I installed mod_perl via a Debian package? For now, I put back the old AxKit debian package just to see if the perl libraries work and they do... YES! Thanks for all the help, I've come a long way on this! -- Aubrey Hutchings [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
