[BioC] XML installation

[Roger Vallejo]

I am trying to install the XML and AnnBuilder packages in a SUN SOLARIS.
I have problems installing the XML. I got these error messages (please
see below). 

I can guess that the problem is due to this:

 

checking for xml-config... no

checking for xml2-config... no

Cannot find xml2-config

 

I would appreciate any hint on how to fix this problem. Thanks a lot.
