Package: libxml-simple-perl Version: 2.16-1 Severity: serious From my pbuilder build log:
... -> Installing cdbs debhelper perl libxml-namespacesupport-perl libxml-sax-perl libxml-libxml-perl libtie-ixhash-perl libxml-parser-perl ... (cd . && /usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=vendor ) Checking installed modules ... ============================================================================= Fatal error: Your default XML parser (XML::SAX::PurePerl) is broken. There are known bugs in the PurePerl parser included with version 0.13 and 0.14 of XML::SAX. The XML::Simple tests will fail with this parser. One way to avoid the problem is to install XML::SAX::Expat - it will install itself as the system default XML parser and then you will be able to install XML::Simple successfully. XML::SAX::Expat is also much faster than XML::SAX::PurePerl so you probably want it anyway. ============================================================================= make: *** [Makefile] Error 255 Even if I pbuilder login to the chroot and install libxml-sax-expat-perl manually (in addition to the libxml-libxml-perl alternative), this message still appears. -- Daniel Schepler
