in reply to Problems installing XML::DOM

There have been problems in the past with XML::Parser and XML::DOM not being synchronized. The problem was compounded by the fact that libxml-enno, which includes XML::DOM, also includes a bunch of poorly maintained modules. So recently libxml-enno has been replaced by the different modules it includes. So maybe you should try intalling the latest version, XML::DOM 1.31, dated August 29.

You should be OK then as it looks like the faulty tests concern XML::XQL and not XML::DOM.

    Bless you !

    Just been through the sam enno->DOM->Parser hell. I suspected what you have stated but having it confirmed is a relief. Why the hell ennon found it necessary to put XML::DOM and XML::XQL etc. in same distro is beyond me. I feel theses modules are too important to get screwed up in Version hell.
