Public bug reported:
Doing apt-get install python-lxml solves the issue, however xen-tools
package does not depend on python-lxml.
I'm using Ubuntu Precise Pangolin 12.04, package version is 4.2.1-1
amd64.
Here is copy and paste of terminal session:
(I added some comments with #, those are not part of the session, I've added
them now for the bug report)
# I try to run xm new configfile.cfg
09:53|matias@matias-desktop:~/Descargas/xen_vms$ sudo xm new ubuntu1204.cfg
Unexpected error: type 'exceptions.ImportError'
Please report to xen-de...@lists.xensource.com
