Error Occurred while installing net-im/pidgin. Error Output: checking for perl >= 5.8.1... 5.16.3 checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool Solution: after running the command 'cpan XML::Parser' as root, the build for net-im/pidgin worked fine for me.

Given that intltool has dev-perl/XML-Parser dependency, this looks like a failure to run perl-cleaner after major perl upgrade.
Please attach the complete build log.

If it it still happens that, then please attach the complete build log; if it no longer happens, please mark this bug as RESOLVED INVALID, thank you in advance.
This is 99% invalid. Please run perl-cleaner when you upgrade perl
