The current clish can use three external XML engines for XML configs parsing. 
These are libroxml, expat or libxml2. By default klish search for expat. You 
don't have expat installed on your system. Probably the libexpat1 and 
libexpat1-dev packages must be installed on debian.

I noticed this shortly after posting this. I had to update my sources.list to 
include unstable in order to get libexpat1-dev. However, I then ran into this 
error:

clish: error while loading shared libraries: libclish.so.0: cannot open shared 
object file: No such file or directory

After some research, I found this page to provide a possible solution:

After running ./configure --prefix=/usr on a fresh install, I now get the 
following when I try to run clish:
clish: clish/shell/shell_startup.c:16: clish_shell_startup: Assertion 
'this->startup' failed.
Aborted
