Hi Alex It sounds like you are missing the headers and include files for compilation. Check if it is installed on your box:
stefano@vmora11gsrv:~$ dpkg -l | grep libxml2 ii libxml-libxml-perl 1.70.ds-1 Perl interface to the libxml2 library ii libxml2 2.7.6.dfsg-1ubuntu1.5 GNOME XML library ii libxml2-dev 2.7.6.dfsg-1ubuntu1.5 Development files for the GNOME XML library if it is not than you can add it with aptitude: sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev Hope it helps Stefano --------------------------------------------------- 41.95581N 12.52854E http://www.linkedin.com/in/stefanoiacovella http://twitter.com/#!/Iacovellas 2012/6/14 aborrell <borrella...@gmail.com>: > Hi Paolo, thanks for your post about postgis 2.0.
