Can you please help me? When I try to install on K12LTSP-6 (Fedora Core 6) # perl -MCPAN -e 'install "XML::Simple"' It tells me: Checking installed modules ... ============================================================================= Fatal error: Your default XML parser (XML::SAX::PurePerl) is broken. There are known bugs in the PurePerl parser included with version 0.13 and 0.14 of XML::SAX. The XML::Simple tests will fail with this parser. One way to avoid the problem is to install XML::SAX::Expat - it will install itself as the system default XML parser and then you will be able to install XML::Simple successfully. XML::SAX::Expat is also much faster than XML::SAX::PurePerl so you probably want it anyway. When I try to install XML::SAX::Expat it tries to prepend XML::Parser which fails. The last few lines are as follows: Expat.c: In function âXS_XML__Parser__Expat_SetEndCdataHandlerâ: Expat.c:2580: error: âXML_Parserâ undeclared (first use in this function) Expat.c:2580: error: expected â;â before âparserâ Expat.c:2581: warning: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code Expat.xs:2127: error: âparserâ undeclared (first use in this function) Expat.xs:2128: error: âXML_EndCdataSectionHandlerâ undeclared (first use in this function) Expat.xs:2128: error: expected â;â before âecdhndlâ Expat.xs:2131: error: âCallbackVectorâ has no member named âendcd_svâ Expat.xs:2131: error: âCallbackVectorâ has no member named âendcd_svâ Expat.xs:2131: error: âCallbackVectorâ has no member named âendcd_svâ Expat.xs:2131: error: âCallbackVectorâ has no member named âendcd_svâ Expat.xs:2131: error: âCallbackVectorâ has no member named âendcd_svâ Expat.xs:2131: error: âCallbackVectorâ has no member named âendcd_svâ Expat.xs:2133: error: âecdhndlâ undeclared (first use in this function) Expat.xs:2135: warning: implicit declaration of function âXML_SetEndCdataSectionHandlerâ Expat.c: In function âXS_XML__Parser__Expat_UnsetAllHandlersâ: Expat.c:2609: error: âXML_Parserâ undeclared (first use in this function) Expat.c:2609: error: expected â;â before âparserâ Expat.xs:2144: error: âparserâ undeclared (first use in this function) Expat.xs:2147: error: âCallbackVectorâ has no member named ânsâ Expat.xs:2148: error: âCallbackVectorâ has no member named âpâ Expat.xs:2149: error: âXML_StartNamespaceDeclHandlerâ undeclared (first use in this function) Expat.xs:2149: error: expected â)â before numeric constant Expat.xs:2154: error: âXML_StartElementHandlerâ undeclared (first use in this function) Expat.xs:2154: error: expected â)â before numeric constant Expat.xs:2158: error: âXML_UnknownEncodingHandlerâ undeclared (first use in this function) Expat.xs:2158: error: expected â)â before numeric constant Expat.c: In function âXS_XML__Parser__Expat_ElementIndexâ: Expat.c:2642: error: âXML_Parserâ undeclared (first use in this function) Expat.c:2642: error: expected â;â before âparserâ Expat.c:2643: warning: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code Expat.xs:2167: error: âparserâ undeclared (first use in this function) Expat.xs:2168: error: âCallbackVectorâ has no member named âst_serial_stackâ Expat.xs:2168: error: âCallbackVectorâ has no member named âst_serial_stackptrâ Expat.c: In function âXS_XML__Parser__Expat_SkipUntilâ: Expat.c:2664: error: âXML_Parserâ undeclared (first use in this function) Expat.c:2664: error: expected â;â before âparserâ Expat.c:2665: warning: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code Expat.xs:2179: error: âparserâ undeclared (first use in this function) Expat.xs:2180: error: âCallbackVectorâ has no member named âst_serialâ Expat.xs:2182: error: âCallbackVectorâ has no member named âskip_untilâ Expat.c: In function âXS_XML__Parser__Expat_Do_External_Parseâ: Expat.c:2687: error: âXML_Parserâ undeclared (first use in this function) Expat.c:2687: error: expected â;â before âparserâ Expat.c:2688: warning: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code Expat.xs:2194: error: âparserâ undeclared (first use in this function) Expat.xs:2205: warning: unused variable âpretâ Expat.xs:2194: warning: unused variable âcbvâ Expat.xs:2192: warning: unused variable âtypeâ make[1]: *** [Expat.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/.cpan/build/XML-Parser-2.34/Expat' make: *** [subdirs] Error 2 /usr/bin/make -- NOT OK Running make test Can't test without successful make Running make install make had returned bad status, install seems impossible
