Subject: bug ParserDatails and /etc location
Date: Wed, 13 Mar 2013 00:26:11 +0300

Hallow all! since ParserDetails.ini is ordinary edit with standalone tools, the link /etc/perl/XML/SAX/ from XML/SAX/ParserDetails.ini crushes due to editor renames original file to backup, and crates new one copy, therefore that link loose or go to old file. to keep this link more stable, imho, better to sym-link XML/SAX/ParserDetails.ini from /etc/perl/XML/SAX/
The XML::SAX distribution does not create symlinks and does not install or expect any files under /etc. The packaged version of the module on Debian and Ubuntu systems has been modified to do those things. If you are using one of those systems and still have the problem you may wish to file a bug with your distro.
