Well, not much I can do without having access to your machine, but have you tried using "find" ? I forget off hand what the library name was, but your could do something like find / -name <libraryname> to see if the library files were properly installed.

As for the C fix, if libxml still needed it, then the installation wouldn't have worked... if it did work for you, then I guess the problem was fixed.

Sorry for not being too helpful. It was a while back that I installed libxml, and I don't have my machine handy with me at this point

UPDATE: I think these are the files... you might just want to add wherever these files are installed in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable when you try to install XML::LibXML

me@myhost me> ls /usr/local/lib
libexslt.a         libxml2.a         libxslt.a         perl5
libexslt.la        libxml2.la        libxslt.la        pkgconfig
libexslt.so        libxml2.so        libxslt.so        xml2Conf.sh
libexslt.so.0      libxml2.so.2      libxslt.so.1      xsltConf.sh
libexslt.so.0.6.0  libxml2.so.2.4.7  libxslt.so.1.0.6
