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. ============================================================================= g64 ~ # emerge --info Portage 2.1.2_pre2-r2 (default-linux/amd64/2006.0, gcc-3.4.6, glibc-2.3.6-r5, 2.6.15-gentoo-r2a x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.15-gentoo-r2a x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3500+ Gentoo Base System version 1.12.5 Last Sync: Tue, 03 Oct 2006 10:50:01 +0000 ccache version 2.4 [enabled] app-admin/eselect-compiler: [Not Present] dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7, 2.0.30 dev-lang/python: 2.4.3-r4 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: 2.4-r6 dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.18.1 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.60 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.17 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.13-r3 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.17-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64 ~amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon64 -pipe" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.3/env /usr/kde/3.3/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/lib/fax /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/spool/fax/etc" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/gconf /etc/java-config/vms/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/web2c" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon64 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig ccache distlocks metadata-transfer parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.join.uni-muenster.de/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo ftp://sunsite.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/pub/Linux/gentoo ftp://ftp6.uni-muenster.de/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo http://mirrors.sec.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de/gentoo/" LANG="en_US.utf8" LINGUAS="en de" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude='/distfiles' --exclude='/local' --exclude='/packages'" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="amd64 X Xaw3d a52 aac aalib alsa apache2 avi bash-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts browserplugin bzip2 cairo cdr clearpasswd cli crypt cups curl dbus dlloader doc dri dvd dvdread dynagraph eds elibc_glibc emacs emboss encode esd examples exim expat fax faxonly ffmpeg firefox fontconfig foomaticdb fortran fritzcapi_cards_fcpci gcl gd gdbm gif gimp glitz gmp gnome gpm graphviz gs gstreamer gtk gtk2 gtkhtml iconv imagemagick imap imlib input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse input_devices_wacom ipv6 isdnlog java jbig jikes jpeg kernel_linux latex lcms ldap libwww linguas_de linguas_en lmtp lua lzw lzw-tiff mbox mikmod mozcalendar mozdevelop mozilla moznocompose moznoirc moznomail moznoroaming mozsvg mozxmlterm mp3 mpeg mplayer multiuser mysql ncurses nethack new-clx nntp nptl nptlonly nsplugin numeric nvidia objc odbc offensive ogg openal opengl oss pam pango pcre pdf pdflib perl php plotutils png pop postgres ppds pppd python qt3 qt4 quicktime rar readline reflection ruby samba sdl seamonkey session simplexml slang spell spl sqlite sqlite3 ssl svg t1lib tcltk tcpd tetex tidy tiff timidity toolbar truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode usb userland_GNU userlocales utf8 video_cards_fbdev video_cards_nv video_cards_nvidia video_cards_vesa vim-pager vim-with-x vorbis winbind wmf xml xml2 xmms xorg xpm xv xvid zip zlib" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS, PORTDIR_OVERLAY Is there a package for the recommended XML-parser that I'm overlooking?

I think I have the same issue but my log maybe is a bit more useful: * Using ExtUtils::MakeMaker Checking installed modules ... Can't locate object method "new" via package "XML::LibXML::SAX::Parser" at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/XML/SAX/ParserFactory.pm line 43. !!! ERROR: dev-perl/XML-Simple-2.15 failed.
I get the same error, 2.14 installs fine, but 2.15 gives that error.
Fixed in cvs.
... and emerges without errors on my box. thanks, s.

I had this problem with x11-themes/gnome-icon-theme package. Then I did a search on XML, LibXML, SAX, and Parser. And found and rebuild these packages: dev-perl/XML-Generator dev-perl/XML-LibXML dev-perl/XML-Parser dev-perl/XML-SAX dev-perl/XML-SAX-Writer Remember: Always share the knowledge!!
