Also, suggestions for alternative XML modules (there are many) will be better tailored to your situation if you describe what it is that you want to do with XML.

The XML::LibXML module provides an XS wrapper around the libxml2 library so if you're building from source then a compiler is required. But building from source is not usually required. A PPM for ActivePerl on Windows is available as documented in the Perl XML FAQ. For Linux, simply install the appropriate package from your distribution (eg: 'apt-get install libxml-libxml-perl' on Debian) and dependencies will be resolved automatically.

If you have a problem that you want help to solve, then perhaps you might like to tell us what you tried and what happened.

Do you have libgdm? apt-get install libgdbm3 should get it for you.

This worked for me! In fact, I executed install XML::LibXML::Common and that installed XML::LibXML completely.

If you are running ActiveState 5.8x, get the PPM from here.

If ActiveState 5.6x, get it from here.

In either of the above cases, OR if you are running Cygwin, install XML::LibXML::Common FIRST.

HTH,
