I've got portage's dev-perl/XML-Parser-2.36, but nevertheless several packages have started to fail during emerge for lack of Perl's XML::Parser. Even the simple script fails to run under perl: > #!/usr/bin/perl -w > > use XML::Parser; > > print "yes\n";
Do I have to get it from CPAN? Consider libgksu; here's the end of the emerge output, where XML::Parser is required by intltool: checking for perl... /usr/bin/perl checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool !!! Please attach the following file when seeking support: !!! /var/tmp/portage/x11-libs/libgksu-2.0.9/work/libgksu-2.0.9/config.log * * ERROR: x11-libs/libgksu-2.0.9 failed. * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 49: Called src_compile * environment, line 2896: Called gnome2_src_compile * environment, line 2264: Called gnome2_src_configure * environment, line 2278: Called econf '--enable-nls' '--disable-gtk-doc' * ebuild.sh, line 534: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * die "econf failed" * The die message: * econf failed * * If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. * A complete build log is located at '/var/tmp/portage/x11-libs/libgksu-2.0.9/temp/build.log'. * The ebuild environment file is located at '/var/tmp/portage/x11-libs/libgksu-2.0.9/temp/environment'. * >>> Failed to emerge x11-libs/libgksu-2.0.9, Log file: >>> '/var/tmp/portage/x11-libs/libgksu-2.0.9/temp/build.log' -- Kevin O'Gorman, PhD
