Install perl XML::Parser on AIX 7,3

  • 1.  Install perl XML::Parser on AIX 7,3

    Posted yesterday

    I installed the latest perl using dnf this morning on AIX 7.3. This is perl 5.38.2.0.

    I am using AIX_Toolbox_73

    Then I tried to add the XML::Parser module, the latest. It does require dependencies, quite expected

    but this seems to be a dead end...

        # dnf install perl-XML-Parser-2.44-1.ppc
        package perl-XML-Parser-2.44-1.ppc requires perl-URI >= 1.74-1

    Then I can find 

        # dnf install perl-URI-1.74-1.noarch
        nothing provides perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.24.1) needed by perl-URI-1.74-1.noarch

    Then it goes to a dead end as at some point it requires some module that doesn't seem

    to exist. And 'dnf provides' doesn't find anything ...

    Options like skip-broken and nobest do nothing to it....

    So does XML::Parser even exist and is installable for perl 5.38.2.0 or do I need

    to remove this perl version to install an older one?

    Thank you
