I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

Re: make error on XML-Parser-2.28 installation on Solaris 5.10

The "cc: not found" bit indicates that the build process needs a compiler and is unable to find one. This is either because:

* You don't have a compiler installed at all

* You don't have your $PATH set up to include the directory (/usr/ccs/bin?) where your compiler is installed

* You have a compiler installed but it is not called 'cc' (perhaps it's called 'gcc') in which case you might need to tweak the Makefile.

You might be better off asking for help on a sys admin forum like http://serverfault.com/
