I recently made it through a very bumpy installation process on Ubuntu, and while I didn't have trouble with XML::LibXSLT specifically I did have problems with numerous others. For two or three of them, installing via the Synaptic graphical manager rather than command-line CPAN fixed the problem. So if Debian Etch has Synaptic you could try that. .Andy Giesler From: koha-bounces@lists.katipo.co.nz [mailto:koha-bounces@lists.katipo.co.nz] On Behalf Of Marty Sent: Thursday, September 18, 2008 11:40 AM To: koha@lists.katipo.co.nz Subject: [Koha] Problem installing XML::LibXSLT Trying to install KOHA 3.0 on Debian Etch After running Makefile.PL I get a warning; Makefile.PL: Warning: prerequisite XML::LibXSLT 1.59 not found.
