+
+Well I have searched around and there really is nothing left that I can see.
+
+I have removed *everything* found by 'find' and 'locate' that contains 'ikiwiki' except the tar file
+and started from the beginning again and I see exactly the same error.
+
+Is it that I maybe have a too old version of some of the Perl dependencies?  The only mdwn.pm files
+that I have are the two I have just extracted from the new tar file.  There is *no* ./IkiWiki.pm file
+
+> It's interesting that you say you have no ./IkiWiki.pm file, since one is

+
+so what/where is it loading to satisfy the ....... aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!
+
+I wasn't noticing the case of the filename, I'd missed the upper case W and guess what 'find' shows me:-
+
+    /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/IkiWiki.pm
+
+Removing the above file has fixed my basic problem, now I'm getting lots of (non-fatal) errors
+about "Can't locate Locale/gettext.pm", presumably that's a missing Perl module, I can probably
+sort that out.

+
+## Errors when running 'make test'
+
+OK, I've now got it to compile and install and presumably it's basically working.  However there
+are a few errors when I run 'make test'.  Several errors have disappeared by installing more Perl
+stuff (specifically XML::SAX) 
+
+> XML::SAX is a requirement of XML::Simple, which is a documented build
+> requirement. (Only really needed if you'll be using subversion actually).
+
+and one error disappeared when I did a 'make install', i.e. the 'make
+test' has a test which requires IkiWiki to be installed first.
