undefined symbol: Perl_Tstack_sp_ptr

Hi,

im trying to install CLI on a new Linux Centos 64bit. Here is what i tried:

I installed development tools        # yum yum groupinstall 'Development Tools'

I installed XML libraries               #yum install perl-XML-LibXML perl-Crypt-SSLeay perl-Class-MethodMaker

I downloaded and run  VMware-vSphere-CLI-4.0.0-161974.x86_64

Now i kinda hoped it would help, i run a *.pl script and still getting error:

perl: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/perl5/auto/XML/LibXML/Common/Common.so: undefined symbol: Perl_Tstack_sp_ptr

From the forum i read, that someone fix this issue by running cpan XML::LibXML  but that one gave me another Perl error:

/usr/bin/perl: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/perl5/auto/Compress/Raw/Zlib/Zlib.so: undefined symbol: Perl_Tstack_sp_ptr

Is there another package or procedures for new Linux server CLI installation..?

Thank you.

Silly me.. i realize that i need different package to run the .pl scripts. After installing the development tools and VMware-vSphere-Perl-SDK-4.1.0-254719.x86_64.tar, it runs like a charm.. sorry for the confusion. Please let me know if you have different approach to installing the proper "development packages".

Thank you.
