Brief description:
I've got a perl script (tv_grab_au) that wants to use threaded perl, and was complaining that I needed to recompile perl with thread support. So last night I added "ithreads" to my USE variable in /etc/make.conf, and emerged perl. Now when I try to run the script I get errors about XML, like this:
| Code: | Can't locate XML/Parser.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.4 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5 /usr/local/lib/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4 .) at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/XML/Twig.pm line 82.

I know next to nothing about perl. Anyone tell me how to fix this? I have tried using perl-cleaner. See below...
What I did, in detail:
1) Added ithreads to my USE, now USE="mysql gtk alsa oss dvb kde mpeg at ssl cdr divx4linux dvd dvdr mpeg msn icq perl png python quicktime samba usb x xvid ssh aim lame mmx avi truetype oggvorbis png zlib transcode -directfb ithreads"
2) Emerged perl like this:
| Code: | emerge --deep \
sys-devel/libperl \
dev-perl/perl-tk \
dev-lang/perl \
dev-perl/libwww-perl \
dev-perl/libxml-perl \
dev-perl/perl-ldap \

I chose to emerge those packages because they seemed to be the ones that are installed when I do emerge --search perl. Emerge didn't pick up any extra dependencies, and seems to have emerged the packages in the order specified there.
3) After that I started getting the error listed above. Investigating that, I eventually found out about perl-cleaner. So I ran"perl-cleaner all", which logs these messages, suspiciously, about XML-related stuff:
| Code: | Sat Apr 2 01:00:24 EST 2005 : Finding left over modules
Sat Apr 2 01:00:24 EST 2005 : The following files remain. These were either installed by hand
Sat Apr 2 01:00:24 EST 2005 : or edited. This script cannot deal with them.
Sat Apr 2 01:00:24 EST 2005 : /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.4/XML/SAX/ParserDetails.ini
Sat Apr 2 01:00:24 EST 2005 : /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.4/XML/SAX/ParserDetails.ini |
I've no idea what might have manually installed these modules. Anyone tell me whats going on? Even a RTFM answer would be good, as long as it says which manual!

Run libperl_rebuilder too, and re-emerge any and all packages that have placed anything under /usr/lib/perl5 (use equery belongs to find out which packages those are).
