I just recently found a solution that worked great for me on Mac OSX 10.2.4 (and 10.2.4 Server). Mount <http://packages.opendarwinports.org> in your finder install perl5.8 and all the libraries that you want from there. All the installs go in /opt/local and are very unlikely to interfere with anything you've installed already. The relink /usr/bin/perl to /opt/local/bin/perl and make sure you are running the new perl (which perl should now point to /opt/local/bin/perl). I also choose to put /opt/local/bin on position one in my path. Then run cpan -MCPAN -e shell and install all the modules you want, most of them work right out of the box and XML::LibXML and XML::LibXSLT did not pose any problem. Let me know if I was not detailed enough. HTH/h
