installing perl MakeMaker

benni1 · 05-28-2009, 04:11 AM

Hi,

i need this MakeMaker from Extutils for installing a XMLParser in Perl.
i am doing this on a slackware machine, so from scratch.

the problem is:
i have a Makefile.PL in this ExtUtils path. but as i understand it, i need the installed MakeMaker from ExtUtils to get a make file from MakeFile.Pl ?!
i get an error something like that: cant find ExtUtils\MakeMaker ....

someone a hint?

thx in advance

CPAN search
http://search.cpan.org/
ExtUtils\MakeMaker ( or ExtUtils::MakeMaker )
http://search.cpan.org/search?query=...Maker&mode=all
http://search.cpan.org/~mschwern/Ext...s/MakeMaker.pm
to get ExtUtils-MakeMaker-6.50.tar.gz

Or even better : use the cpan shell :
# cpan
> cpan install XML::Parser
which will install XML::Parser and all dependencies.

First choice would be 'Slackbuilds' , but the package
seems not to be available.
