We've basically standardized on xml.sax as it had a good balance between
performance and memory consumption, and it's bundled with Python.

Rewriting code because the library hasn't been updated is a bad reason,
agreed.  But if said library is being phased out to the point that
distros have started deprecating it and/or packages for distros are no
longer available, that's a more compelling reason.

I think that we discuss this on the devel list, as IIRC dischi and jason 
  did some analysis of xml parsers.

In freevo-1, at the moment there are already several parsers:
http://pyxml.sourceforge.net/
elementtree and
beautifulsoup.

All have advantages and disadvantages. I agree with dischi, just because 
  something has not been updated it does not mean that it is bad, take 
TeX for example, the only know program with no know bugs and when was 
that last updated?

Rewriting code, just because a library has not been updated, is not one 
of my favourite tasks.

You only need kaa-base,kaa-meta,kaa-imlib right now for the 1.7.7
branch. I do not think you need anything else on teh 1.8 branch yet
either.

Hi!

I'm trying to build kaa from source (python setup.py install) but I
can't find evas package for Ubuntu Hardy. Is it safe to leave out evas
and what consequences does it have for kaa/freevo? I've understood
it's a canvas library for X so does it make kaa/freevo ui work faster?

Re: [Freevo-users] Ubuntu Gutsy problems

Especially since source install is painless and relatively easy. Moved
from 1.7.2. to 1.8.0 very easily once I decided not to try anymore to
run the geole packages.

Yep - I'm seeing it to now that I actually did an aptitude
update&&aptitude upgrade on that box.
I went back to 1.7.3 but I'll probably install from source at some
point if it doesn't get fixed soon.
Thanks

That should read Freevo. Freevo should use another implementation of
XML at least in the 1.8.x series.

In the Changelog or README.Debian files in /usr/share/doc it says
python-xml will be removed in favor of the core python implementation of xml.
The python-xml files are temporarily in site-packages/oldxml but I don't
know the best way to point to them without changing the code of Freevo.
Maybe you could symlink the new directory to the old location or use an
environment variable like PYTHON_PATH

It seems that python should use another implementation of XML at least
in the 1.8.x series.
