You just broke source compatibility between the core package and PyXML. which, I fear, is still unresolved. or ? /F ___ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com

The problem is that now PyXML is no longer maintainable (not that it has been maintained very well, though): The files that used to be identical in PyXML and Python no longer are identical, so keeping them synchronized adds unreasonable maintenance costs (IMO).

I don't know what the differences are. Are they large? Can we copy the changes from Python back into PyXML? Or modify both PyXML and Python so they are the same? Could we create a patch that would be applied on importing PyXML to make things easier? n ___ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com

Could we create a patch that would be applied on importing PyXML to make things easier? Primarily, things got renamed from xml to xmlcore in different places. Porting them to PyXML is besides the point of the renaming, because PyXML then would have to provide an xmlcore package, too. As for actual solution strategies: I haven't yet researched any. Fred indicated he has something in mind, but hasn't been forthcoming over the past few months.
