Subject: Bug: XML::LibXML::Common v0.13 does not build under Mac OS X 10.4 w/ default compiler
Specs: PowerMac G4/400 PCI (Oct. 1999) Mac OS X 10.4.5 (latest) w/ libxml2 v2.6.16 Apple DevTools 2.2.1 (latest) compiler gcc 4.0.1 and gcc 3.3 Perl 5.8.6 (factory/preinstalled) The default compiler in Mac OS X 10.4.x is gcc 4.0.1. Trying to install XML::LibXML::Common v0.13 with gcc 4.0.1 results in a bunch of "signedness warnings" during the 'make'-Phase. After switching to gcc 3.3, I managed to built XML::LibXML::Common v0.13 (which is one of the prerequisites for XML::LibXML). Just for the record -- this problem is not only Apple/OS X related, there are some general problems with XML::LibXML and rleated modules in their current states. Perl modules are expected to be platform independent, and these ones aren't. I contacted the author of XML::LibXML and related, Christian Glahn, a week ago and still hope to get an answer. Cheers Joerg

You speak about warnings, but there must be an error for a compiler to fail building a module. Could you please post full log of the compilation process?

Sure -- the full process until I skipped it -- after 'make'.

Compilation warnings reported in this ticket were no bugs per se; nevertheless, they should be all addressed in the CVS at http://perl-xml.cvs.sourceforge.net/perl-xml/XML-LibXML-Common/. -- Petr
