Hello , the problem is this, i need to install the XML-LibXML library and it seems to be easier to put salt in your eyes than to realize this. I get the error below which basically states that i cannot install the library because i don't have libxml2 installed. Of course libxml2 is installed(i downloaded the binaries and put the path to them in the PATH system variable) but it still doesn't seem to work. I also tried to set the LIBS and INC variable with the path to the libxml installation. It still doesn't work. In every case i still get the same error as below:


C:\PAR-0.85_01\PAR-0.85_01>cd C:\XML-Lib\XML-LibXML-1.88\XML-LibXML-1.88

C:\XML-Lib\XML-LibXML-1.88\XML-LibXML-1.88>perl Makefile.pl
enable native perl UTF8
Use of uninitialized value $config{"LIBS"} in pattern match (m//) at Makefile.pl
line 282.
looking for -lxml2... no
looking for -llibxml2... no
libxml2, zlib, and/or the Math library (-lm) have not been found.
Try setting LIBS and INC values on the command line
Or get libxml2 from
http://xmlsoft.org/
If you install via RPMs, make sure you also install the -devel
RPMs, as this is where the headers (.h files) are.

Also, you may try to run perl Makefile.PL with the DEBUG=1 parameter
to see the exact reason why the detection of libxml2 installation
failed or why Makefile.PL was not able to compile a test program.

Any help would be appreciated!
