11 Description: lxml is a Pythonic, mature binding for the libxml2 and libxslt libraries. It
12 provides safe and convenient access to these libraries using the ElementTree
15 It extends the ElementTree API significantly to offer support for XPath,
16 RelaxNG, XML Schema, XSLT, C14N and much more.
18 To contact the project, go to the `project home page
19 <https://lxml.de/>`_ or see our bug tracker at
20 https://launchpad.net/lxml
22 In case you want to use the current in-development version of lxml,
23 you can get it from the github repository at
24 https://github.com/lxml/lxml . Note that this requires Cython to
25 build the sources, see the build instructions on the project home
26 page. To the same end, running ``easy_install lxml==dev`` will
28 https://github.com/lxml/lxml/tarball/master#egg=lxml-dev if you have
29 an appropriate version of Cython installed.
32 After an official release of a new stable series, bug fixes may become
34 https://github.com/lxml/lxml/tree/lxml-4.5 .
35 Running ``easy_install lxml==4.5bugfix`` will install
36 the unreleased branch state from
37 https://github.com/lxml/lxml/tarball/lxml-4.5#egg=lxml-4.5bugfix
38 as soon as a maintenance branch has been established. Note that this
39 requires Cython to be installed at an appropriate version for the build.
47 * ``Cleaner()`` now validates that only known configuration options can be set.
49 * LP#1882606: ``Cleaner.clean_html()`` discarded comments and PIs regardless of the
50 corresponding configuration option, if ``remove_unknown_tags`` was set.
52 * LP#1880251: Instead of globally overwriting the document loader in libxml2, lxml now
53 sets it per parser run, which improves the interoperability with other users of libxml2
56 * LP#1881960: Fix build in CPython 3.10 by using Cython 0.29.21.
58 * The setup options "--with-xml2-config" and "--with-xslt-config" were accidentally renamed
59 to "--xml2-config" and "--xslt-config" in 4.5.1 and are now available again.
