Unable to install XML::Parser

revof11 · 04-18-2007, 06:22 PM

I ran the following command hoping to get XML::Parser Perl module installed:

Code:

perl -MCPAN -e 'install XML::Parser'

Unfortunately, it end up with:

Code:

make: *** [subdirs] Error 2
  MSERGEANT/XML-Parser-2.34.tar.gz
  /usr/bin/make -- NOT OK
CPAN: YAML loaded ok (v0.62)
Running make test
  Can't test without successful make
Running make install
  Make had returned bad status, install seems impossible

What I want to do is start over from scratch. I want to run that initial config you get from cpan in order to set up your locale and where you download from. I want to do this because I want to change where I am grabbing packages from.

How do I do this?

i guess there is a current problem in the XML::Parser package. Yesterday i read a similar thread and now testing to run cpan XML::Parser I run into difficulties myself. I havnt got it yet... and ftp seems to hang

run
cpan
to change config

I'll just chill on it then and wait.
I'll try an update again in a week or so to give them some time.

Since your profile says you are using Fedora, why not just use yum to install it.

Code:

#yum install perl-XML-Parser
