in thread perl module XML::CanonicalizeXML won't install - issue with make / libxml

Thanks Marto, thought it was something along these lines.

Next issue, SUSE, at least this version, doesn't have apt-get. I'm used to Ubunto with apt-get and CentOS with Yum but a bit lost on this OS. An internet search pointed me to use zypper instead of apt-get - "zypper install libxml2 libxml2-dev". This claims to have upgraded libxml2, but not libxml2-dev - "Package 'libxml2-dev' not found."

Have tested and XML::CanonicalizeXML is still giving the same error as before.

Any thoughts/ideas?

Thanks,

Matt.

    I don't use SUSE, but a web search for 'zypper libxml2' shows that the package name you are looking for is libxml2-devel.

      Thanks again! I'm not very 'sysadmin' I'm afraid..!

      Now trying to install XML::Sig:

      When I check Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA I get "Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA is up to date (0.28)."

      Does anyone know anything about this?

      Thanks,
      Matt.

        This seems to be a known bug in XML::Sig. Maybe the patch attached to the RT ticket works for you?

        To apply the change manually, do the following:

        cpan look XML::Sig
patch < /file/where/you/saved/the.patch
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

        [download]

        If you don't have the patch program, manually edit lib/XML/Sig.pm instead.
