Hey Dave, Thanks for the quick reply. The path is correct:
# ls -l /usr/local/libxml2/include/libxml2/libxml/parser.h -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 39556 Sep 15 10:07 /usr/local/libxml2/include/libxml2/libxml/parser.h I first used /usr/local/libxml2/include/ which did not work. Doing a find for parser.h made me change the include path. Could possibly the version of libxml2 be an issue: 2-2.7.7 ???
