I've managed to get rid of the XML::LibXML / libxml2 related errors in our 
apache2 error log.  I accomplished this by installing the version of libxml2 
from www.xmlsoft.org, using ldconfig to add the new libxml2 library at 
/usr/local/lib, then installing XML::LibXML::Common via synaptic.

I still can't bring up our sympa home page in a browser - our apache2 error 
logs indicate the problem is with either sympa.conf or wwsympa.conf

file from the cgi-bin/sympa directory and try to get to the sympa homepage i 
get

thanks again.
