Re^2: cpan install error for XML::LibXML::Node

I tried that and get the same results. I'm not an experienced compiler. I'm assuming the '-l' is just passed to gcc? The libxml2 library is:

/usr/lib64/libxml2.so.2.7.6
/usr/lib64/libxml2.so.2 -> libxml2.so.2.7.6
[download]

that is why I used libxml2. Maybe I should make it libxml2.so.2?

Nope, definitely `-lxml2`. `$ xml2-config --libs -lxml2 -lz -lm` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Well, that definitely answers the library question. Changed to '-lxml2 -lz -lm,' but still can't seem to find the libxml header files. Really odd since I have that explicitly included.	[reply]

still can't seem to find the libxml header files. That's because your include flag is wrong too. It should be `-I/usr/include/libxml2` and hopefully you'll be sorted.	[reply] [d/l]
