Bug 149954 – XML-Simple-2.15 fails (Fatal error: Your default XML parser (XML::SAX::PurePerl) is broken.)

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE

[Description Alexander Jenisch 2006-10-03 06:16:16 UTC]

i do have expat installed and no PurePerl package on my system, so i wonder, what's this about.

/var/tmp/portage/XML-Simple-2.15/work/XML-Simple-2.15
 * Using ExtUtils::MakeMaker
Checking installed modules ...
=============================================================================

  Fatal error: Your default XML parser (XML::SAX::PurePerl) is broken.

  There are known bugs in the PurePerl parser included with version 0.13
  and 0.14 of XML::SAX.  The XML::Simple tests will fail with this parser.

  One way to avoid the problem is to install XML::SAX::Expat - it will
  install itself as the system default XML parser and then you will be able
  to install XML::Simple successfully.  XML::SAX::Expat is also much faster
  than XML::SAX::PurePerl so you probably want it anyway.
