| Subject: | Bugs: Building XML::LibXML v1.58 or v1.58_1 w/ gcc 3.3 under Mac OS X 10.4 throws warnings |
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 build XML::LibXML with gcc
4.0.1 failed.
I switched to gcc 3.3 (with gcc_select 3.3). This let the "signedness warnings" in gcc 4.0.1
disappear, but two problems are left:
(1) Warning while running 'perl makefile.PL'
"running xml2-config...untested
WARNING!
The installed version of libxml2 was not tested with this version of XML::LibXML.
XML::LibXML may fail building or some tests may not pass.
Expect strange errors and unstable scripts.
Check the README file for more informations
END OF WARNING "
Well, the Readme does not say something helpfull... It's out of date.
(2) Warning of deprecated DOCBparser
At last, there is the following warning:
/usr/include/libxml2/libxml/DOCBparser.h:22:2: warning:
#warning "The DOCBparser module has been deprecated in libxml2-2.6.0"
During 'make test' all tests but one passed successfully; one was skipped; none threw errors.
I decided to give it a try, and started to expect strange errors and unstable scripts (because I
read the Readme ;-)
It's interesting to see that warning #2 has been around in XML::LibXML since Oct 2003. The
compatibility of XML::LibXML with libxml2 > v2.6.0 seems questionable to me. In general,
not only on the Mac.
Just for the record -- this problem is not only Apple/OS X related, there are some general
problems with XML::LibXML and related 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 modules, Christian Glahn, a week ago and
still hope to get an answer.
But since this bug list grows, while there is no visible development or maintenance of
XML::LibXML since two years, I fear we're all out of luck.
Sad situation.
Cheers
Joerg
