| Subject: | Local installation fails when XML::SAX is installed in system paths |
I tried to install XML::LibXML locally to ~/perl5:
$cpanm XML::LibXML
--> Working on XML::LibXML
Fetching
http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/S/SH/SHLOMIF/XML-LibXML-1.90.tar.gz
... OK
Configuring XML-LibXML-1.90 ... OK
Building and testing XML-LibXML-1.90 ... FAIL
! Installing XML::LibXML failed. See ~/.cpanm/build.log for details.
Although XML::LibXML was actually installed, the cpanm failure prevents
installing other modules that depend on XML::LibXML and users are
confused because ~/.cpanm/build.log contains:
Installing ~/perl5/lib/perl5/i686-linux-thread-multi/XML/LibXML.pm
Appending installation info to
~/perl5/lib/perl5/i686-linux-thread-multi/perllocal.pod

make: *** [install_sax_driver] Error 13
I found a several years old patch by Petr Pajas (attached), but no bug
report, so I have no idea why was not the patch applied.
