I'd start with satisfying the dependencies; in particular the ExtUtils::MakeMaker version might make a difference. Perl 6 - second systems done right	[reply]

I suspect you can get a ready-made version from your distro: `apt-get install libxml-libxml-perl` [download] One usually simply installs modules using something like `cpan XML::LibXML` [download] This will install the required dependencies too.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
