I am in the process of installing module XML::Parser on a Unix system running Solaris 2.8. The system I inherited has Perl (version 5.00503) installed in a non-standard location, and I am trying to install the module in the appropriate non-standard directory. I have followed the steps outlined below and I'm stumped by the error generated by "make install". I want the XML and auto/XML subdirectories to be located in the ... sun4-solaris directory, but I'm not sure I have the correct values for PREFIX and INSTALLDIRS when running Makefile.PL. Any help you can provide would be most appreciated.
gzip -d XML-Parser-2.34.tar.gz
tar -xf XML-Parser-2.34
perl Makefile.PL \
PREFIX=/apps/midb/perl_5.005/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/sun4-solaris \
INSTALLDIRS=sun4-solaris \
EXPATLIBPATH=/usr/local/lib \
EXPATINCPATH=/usr/local/include
make
make test
make install
Fatal error: Don't know how to make target `pure_sun4-solaris_install'
