Trying to install Bundle::XML through CPAN on my parallel install

from the build sessions.
cpan gave me some notices about not being able to find expat's
libs, and the Makefile told me to define some variables on the perl
command line, PERLEXPATLIB and PERLEXPATINCLUDE or something like
that. I tried invoking Makefile.pl directly, as the error messages
suggested, gut a compile, and some tests fail and I'm too sleepy to
remember any of this. If anyone can read my mind and can tell me
what I'm doing wrong before I dig those messages back up tomorrow,
I'd sure appreciate it.
joel, recognizing that trying to install things in his sleep is one
of the things he is doing wrong
Okay, here's the snippets from the error messages, if they make
things any clearer:
---------------from cpan attempt to install Bundle::XML--------------
Removing previously used /Users/jmr/.cpan/build/XML-Parser-2.34
CPAN.pm: Going to build M/MS/MSERGEANT/XML-Parser-2.34.tar.gz
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lexpat
Expat must be installed prior to building XML::Parser and I can't find
it in the standard library directories. You can download expat from:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/expat/
If expat is installed, but in a non-standard directory, then use the
following options to Makefile.PL:
EXPATLIBPATH=... To set the directory in which to find libexpat
EXPATINCPATH=... To set the directory in which to find expat.h
For example:
perl Makefile.PL EXPATLIBPATH=/home/me/lib EXPATINCPATH=/home/me/
include
Note that if you build against a shareable library in a non-standard
location
you may (on some platforms) also have to set your LD_LIBRARY_PATH
environment
variable at run time for perl to find the library.
Warning: No success on command[/usr/local/bin/perl Makefile.PL]
Running make test
Make had some problems, won't test
Running make install

-----------------from attempt to make by hand----------------------
perl Makefile.PL EXPATLIBPATH=/usr/local/lib EXPATINCPATH=/usr/local/
