Bug 504480 – net-libs/glib-networking-2.38.2 needs some perl XML::Parser

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 596664
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Markus Teich 2014-03-13 13:44:11 UTC]

Created attachment 372554 [details]
build.log

configure step fails with:

…
checking for perl... /usr/bin/perl
checking for perl >= 5.8.1... 5.16.3
checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool

I installed dev-perl/libxml-perl-0.80.0 manually, but it still throws the same error message.

Please run

  perl-cleaner --all

and try again. If this fixed your error please keep in mind to reun above command everytime you've updated dev-lang/perl.

Thanks, it worked.

Is there a reason, why this can't be done automatically after updating dev-lang/perl?

perl team is working on using subslot dependencies as a permanent replacement of perl-cleaner for such tasks. But the team is quite understaffed and thus progress is very slow.
