Hello, I'm having some problems compiling the XML::LibXSLT module and was wondering if anyone could help. I've successfully compiled and tested libxml2 2.4.22 and libxslt 1.0.18, and have been able to get the make procedures to find libxml when compiling things like Sablotron, etc. However, I can't get the XML::LibXSLT makefile to find my libxslt libraries. No matter what options I pass for LIBS and INC, I keep getting the following result:
running xslt-config... failed using fallback values for LIBS and INC options: LIBS='-L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/lib -lxslt -lxml2 -lz -lm' INC='-I/usr/local/include -I/usr/include' If this is wrong, Re-run as: $ perl5 Makefile.PL LIBS='-L/path/to/lib' INC='-I/path/to/include' looking for -lxslt... no libxslt not found Try setting LIBS and INC values on the command line Or get libxslt and libxml2 from http://www.libxml.org/ If you install via RPMs, make sure you also install the -devel RPMs, as this is where the headers (.h files) are. I installed libxml2 and libxslt from tar.gz files on a FreeBSD 4.4 system, but it's set up a bit strangely... It's on a "virtual server," so / actually maps to /usr/home/username/. Libxml is installed at (using the virtual directory structure) /usr/local/libxml2-2.4.22 and libxslt is installed at /usr/local/libxslt-1.0.18. Additionally, I have soft links in the /usr/local directory (libxml -> libxml2-2.4.22, libxslt -> libxslt-1.0.18). I've tried passing LIBS='-L/usr/home/username/usr/local/libxslt/lib' INC='-I/usr/home/username/usr/local/libxslt/include' on the command line as suggested, as well as variants omitting the /usr/home/username part and using the full directory names instead of the links. Same results each time. I'm not too familiar with passing compiler flags, though. Am I passing the wrong values, or is there something I'm missing? TIA. Sincerely, Scott G. Kearn
