cd to that /root/.cpan/build/XML-LibXML-2

The cardinal error is
Quote:
No 'Makefile' created
You should have a file called 'Makefile' (not Makefile.in, or Makefile.am, or anything)

If not, check for a file called configure, and run it
Quote:
./configure

The first choice should be : # zypper in perl perl-base perl-XML-LibXML

No Internet or no license ?
Use an older stable version of XML::LibXML, e.g. version 1.95.
Or build version 2.0004 manually ...
http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/cpan/autho...-2.0004.tar.gz
cd XML-LibXML-2.0004/ && perl Makefile.PL && make ; # make install
( The package 'libxml2-devel' must be installed to build XML::LibXML ).

... Or use the source SRC.RPM to build an rpm package :
http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/sou...95-5.4.src.rpm
> perl-XML-LibXML-1.95-5.4.src.rpm
