You are missing libxslt, or don't have in the correct path, just like the error message says.

I accidentally misreported a bug today that looks *much* like this one ( I messed up and looked in/reported in the XML-LibXML bug queue instead , bah )

https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=69394

In essence, even if you have installed the libxslt development libraries, it will *still* cause the exact same error above, despite there being no problem with the libxslt libraries themselves.

In fact, in the linked case, it was an absence of the zlib development libraries!, and as the test for libxslt uses '-lz' in its link test, it falsely thinks the root cause is libxslt when its really libz

If the original poster can confirm they already had the development libraries for libxslt installed when this problem was occuring, and that installing libz's development libraries solved their issue, then this might be the solution required, otherwise I'll go off and file another bug, ( though, I think at this point, doing so is redundant somewhat )

Rejecting due to lack of responsiveness and invalidity.
