DESCRIPTION

55       This module provides libxml2 for other modules to use.  There was an
56       already existing Alien::LibXML, but it uses the older
57       Alien::Build::ModuleBuild and has not been actively maintained for a
58       while.

CAVEATS

61       "libxml2" has some optional prereqs, including "zlib" and "iconv".  For
62       a "share" install you will want to make sure that these are installed
63       prior to installing Alien::Libxml2 if you want to make use of features
64       relying on them.
65
66       For a system install, you want to make sure the development packages
67       for "libxml2", "zlib" and "iconv" are installed if "libxml2" has been
68       configured to use them, otherwise XML::LibXML will not install as
69       expected.  If the tests for this module fail with a missing "iconv.h"
70       or "zlib.h", then this is likely the reason.
