Note: the problem may be with whatever tool is trying to ascertain XML::Parser. In emeging x11-misc/shared-mime-info-1.2-r1, I got the same error message: checking for gmsgfmt... /usr/bin/gmsgfmt 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 !!! Please attach the following file when seeking support: !!! /var/tmp/portage/x11-misc/shared-mime-info-1.2-r1/work/shared-mime-info-1.2/config.log * ERROR: x11-misc/shared-mime-info-1.2-r1::gentoo failed (configure phase): * econf failed I'll try re-emerging XML::Parser.
Fixed: rebuilding XML-Parser resulted in dev-util/intltool-0.50.2-r1 successfully installing.
