Thanks for pointing out the fact that one can set LIBXML_INCDIR and it is definitely a good thing. In this particular case, however, I hope that the configuration should work automatically without any additional manual settings. The configure script should be using xml2-config --cflags and that should return -I/usr/include/libxml2 and libxml/parser.h is then duly found within that directory. If this isn't the case, I'd be happy to find out and change things. Unfortunately, conflicts between libxml and libxml2, use of libxml/ and gnome-xml/, etc... make this a complex configuration. > > -- > Robert Burrows, PhD > New England Biometrics > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > ______________________________________________ > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list > https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help -- _______________________________________________________________ Duncan Temple Lang [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bell Labs, Lucent Technologies office: (908)582-3217 700 Mountain Avenue, Room 2C-259 fax: (908)582-3340 Murray Hill, NJ 07974-2070 http://cm.bell-labs.com/stat/duncan ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help
