XML::CanonicalizeXML install issue

[Anonymous Monk]

While installing an XML::CanonicalizeXML.pm in Linux Operating System. I am facing an issue like this:

Warning (non-fatal): Target 'dynamic' depends on targets in skipped section 'dynamic_lib' Warning (non-fatal): Target 'static' depends on targets in skipped section 'static_lib'

while executing the Makefile.PL

The Makefile contains like this:

use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;

$mylib=`xml2-config --libs`;
$myinc=`xml2-config --cflags`;

# See lib/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm for details of how to influence
# the contents of the Makefile that is written.
WriteMakefile(
    NAME              => 'XML::CanonicalizeXML',
    VERSION_FROM      => 'lib/XML/CanonicalizeXML.pm', # finds $VERSIO
+N
    PREREQ_PM         => {}, # e.g., Module::Name => 1.1
    ($] >= 5.005 ?     ## Add these new keywords supported since 5.005
      (ABSTRACT_FROM  => 'lib/XML/CanonicalizeXML.pm', # retrieve abst

    LIBS              => [$mylib], # e.g., '-lm'
    DEFINE            => '', # e.g., '-DHAVE_SOMETHING'
    INC               => '-I. ' . $myinc, # e.g., '-I. -I/usr/include/

    MYEXTLIB          => 'canon/libcanon$(LIB_EXT)',
    # Un-comment this if you add C files to link with later:
    # OBJECT            => '$(O_FILES)', # link all the C files too
);
if  (eval {require ExtUtils::Constant; 1}) {
  # If you edit these definitions to change the constants used by this
+ module,
  # you will need to use the generated const-c.inc and const-xs.inc
  # files to replace their "fallback" counterparts before distributing

  my @names = (qw());
  ExtUtils::Constant::WriteConstants(
                                     NAME         => 'XML::Canonicaliz

                                     NAMES        => \@names,
                                     DEFAULT_TYPE => 'IV',
                                     C_FILE       => 'const-c.inc',
                                     XS_FILE      => 'const-xs.inc',
                                  );

}
else {
  use File::Copy;
  use File::Spec;
  foreach my $file ('const-c.inc', 'const-xs.inc') {
    my $fallback = File::Spec->catfile('fallback', $file);
    copy ($fallback, $file) or die "Can't copy $fallback to $file: $!"
+;
  }
}

sub MY::postamble {
'
$(MYEXTLIB): canon/Makefile
    cd canon && $(MAKE) $(PASSTHRU)
';
}

So can anyone help me regarding on this issue?

Have you installed libxml2 and the headers?

What is the output of xml2-config --libs; xml2-config --cflags?

There is a reasonably high success rate installing this module on Linux so you should be able to get there in the end.

output for xml2-config --libs: -lxml2 -lz -lm -ldl

output for xml2-config --cflags: -lxml2 -lz -lm -ldl

after installing libxml2, we have execute XML-CanonicalizeXML-0.10 we are getting an error like this:

 MakeMaker (v6.68)

output for xml2-config --cflags: -lxml2 -lz -lm -ldl

That suggests to me that you have not installed the headers.
