Currently Embperl 2.0 Beta 6 requires xalan to be compiled from sources.
xalan is not only a big download, but also takes a long time to compile.
I've modified driver/epxalan.MAKEPL, so that it will check to see if
xalan is already installed in /usr. On my Debian 3.0 system, after
running 'apt-get install libxalan1.2-dev', the library is at
/usr/lib/libxalan-c.so.1.2 and the headers are in /usr/include/xalan.
These are the standard locations.
With this patch, Embperl with XALAN support compiles, tests, and
installs fine for me. Wether it works or not, I have no idea; I'm just
beginning to expirement with Embperl2 + XML.
Theortically this should work on any Linux like system.
