I don't > know which functionality depends on python-lxml, With python-lxml, the GUI does validation in the front-end before updating a user's modification to CIB. If it's not valid against the schema, the GUI will give the detailed reason. While without it, the GUI will easily print "Updated CIB does not validate against pacemaker-1.0 schema/dtd" which is given by CIB daemon. A bit confusing:-)

(How enough is enough, I'll leave that to you :) :-) I can understand people would like to add a repo via zypper/yum and install packages from there with everything resolved. So for the distributions that don't include python-lxml (As far as I know: RHEL/CentOS 4&5). I prefer removing the dependency. Even though, whenever people find and install python-lxml, they'll get the same experience. While for other distributions that surely include python-lxml, I'll leave the dependency in rpm/deb, and it behaves just like before. Your opinion?
