Re^3: two versions of libxml2 causing module to fail install

Sorry to resurrect this ... but the trick that worked before seems to no longer work. I am flummoxed.

The same versions of libxml2 are involved here. Not sure where or how the /usr/local/lib copy of libxml2 is getting pulled in. I have both set the make_arg variable AND removed /usr/local/lib from LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Foo. I don't mind some fun sleuthing, but don't really have the time for it now. I will report back with what I find.

Run 'ldd' on the LibXML.so files under the 'auto' directory of the library, e.g.: `ldd /usr/perl/lib/site_perl/5.14.1/sun4-solaris-64int-ld/auto/XML/LibX +ML/LibXML.so` [download] Then play with LD_LIBRARY_PATH (e.g., unset it completely) and see what ldd says.	[reply] [d/l]

what runrig said, bookmark this/these LD_LIBRARY_PATH / ldd -v ..so like this run ldd -v to begin debugging this, see Re^5: Can't load LibXML.so for module XML::LibXML: libz.so.1: cannot open shared object file (64 32 bit dont mix), Re^4: DBD::mysql fail install check (objdump -p missing symbol), Re: Not able to make XML-LibXML package (install missing prerequisites, apt-get install libxml2 libxml2-dev zlib1g-dev, apt-get install libxml-libxml-perl ), and the links and the links and the links	[reply]
