Re: XML::Simple Install hosed

In the case of a complete, new Perl, since the ExtUtuls modrm.pl does not seem to be thorough enough, I downloaded 5.8.8,and ran configure -d from the /Library/Perl/5.8.8 directory. It seems to want to put the new perl in /usr/local, /usr/local/lib. Not exactly what was there before... (btw, quite a few details there guys) This seems fishy to me for new module install and such... (read unlucky) *sigh*

still wondering where to go now...

Two solutions so far... Patch the code in XML::Simple that tests for the presence of a Parser.. forcing TRUE makes it work or, setting the package var, as doucmented $XML::Simple::PREFERRED_PARSER = 'XML::Parser'; -Brian	[reply]
