I managed to get this fixed in the end, and am now running 5.2.5 successfully.
I built my own versions of libxml 2.6.31 and libxslt 1.1.22, and removed an old version of libxml that was in /usr/local/lib. As I changed both things at once I can guarantee exactly which fixed my issue. I was specifying /usr for my libxml location when bulding PPH, so I don't believe the version in /usr/local will have been the problem. So, anyone running a recent Slackware with the same issues - I'd suggest you try the same; build your own libxml/libxslt and take things from there. Thanks to Mike for his input on this one. cheers Jamie > Jamie Harris wrote: > Further to this I get the same issue with 5.2.2.
