[Bug 343242] Re: python-xml seems to be broken with python-2.6: xpath does not work
Going back to Windows just because of this seems a bit radical. If PyXML is what's required, doing the following seems rather straightforward compared with some DLL conflicts: 1. Download PyXML-0.8.4.tar.gz from http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyxml/files/ 2. You may need to install python2.6-dev, for example via: sudo apt-get install python2.6-dev 3. Use these commands: tar xvzf PyXML-0.8.4.tar.gz cd PyXML-0.8.4 wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/31786748/0001-Patch-for-Python-2.6.patch patch -p1 0001-Patch-for-Python-2.6.patch sudo python2.6 setup.py install I still reckon PyXML should be packaged in its own package (if the other things in python-xml are broken). I think the patch is easy enough for it to be dealt with as part of the packaging process. Libxml2 may be the modern way to do XPath in Python, but having all the legacy applications (whether-or-not packaged by Debian/Ubuntu) that currently rely on PyXML change their code to use libxml2 sounds like a lot of work, possibly unrealistic. -- python-xml seems to be broken with python-2.6: xpath does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/343242 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 343242] Re: python-xml seems to be broken with python-2.6: xpath does not work
The problem is that if pyxml is installed, the parts of pyxml that were integrated (and maintained) in Python 2.4 and later get superceded by the obsolete pyxml code if it's installed, so installing it to support one package can have negative effects on others. For people that really want the other pyxml bits, the thing to do is to go through and remove all the code that was integrated into Python, make a new release of this subset, and take up maintenance of it. -- python-xml seems to be broken with python-2.6: xpath does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/343242 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

In theory, it could be, but the Python maintainer had asked its because of conflicts with the parts that were included in Python 2.4 and later. In addition to your change, it would also need to be modified to not duplicate what's already in Python itself, get agreement from the Python maintainer, and have someone who will keep up with the package in Ubuntu.

[Bug 343242] Re: python-xml seems to be broken with python-2.6: xpath does not work
Hello, Apologies for restarting the discussion, but I'm still not convinced about the arguments for removing PyXML. (Like others who have commented on this issue, I have some code that depends on PyXML's XPath capabilities; changing to another implementation would require substantial changes.) I do realise that PyXML has been inactive for a while (the latest file available for download on the SourceForge page dates back from November 2004, which is almost 5 years ago). However, I wonder if this really is an argument for discontinuing its inclusion. Does a project need to have continuous releases to be included? If something is not broken, why fix it? A good reason for not including it would be that it breaks with some newer versions of Python and that it hasn't been maintained, but perhaps the reason there haven't been any new releases is simply the fact it doesn't need any urgent maintenance (triggered by external changes). Are there any issues that need maintenance because of recent changes in Python? ** Changed in: python-xml (Ubuntu) Status: Won't Fix = New -- python-xml seems to be broken with python-2.6: xpath does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/343242 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Sorry, I hadn't realised the entire python-xml package had been removed (I though you were only talking of PyXML). It has indeed been removed from Debian too. I'm not sure about the other libraries that were in python-xml, but it seems that PyXML works fine (with the patch for as keyword) so far. I managed to install it with python setup.py install (which can be done via checkinstall to create a package). Perhaps this could be packaged in a package on its own (python-pyxml?). I found that some features of PyXML were not available via ElementTree 1.2.6 (which is the one package with python-2.6 2.6.2-0ubuntu1 - Jaunty/9.04), in particular, XPath expressions based on attributes ([...@attr]). This feature seem only available from version 1.3 of ElementTree (http://effbot.org/zone/element-xpath.htm ). The same version seems to be in the python2.6 package for the upcoming karmic/9.10. I suppose libxml2 might provide this feature. -- python-xml seems to be broken with python-2.6: xpath does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/343242 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 343242] Re: python-xml seems to be broken with python-2.6: xpath does not work
Streamlining the use of the standard library xml module is probably a good idea. However, the removal of python-xml breaks not only packages in universe, but also third party applications. At my company, various products include code built around PyXML's xpath module. While they run perfectly well on our servers using older Python and PyXML versions, I am currently only able to run test builds on my Ubuntu 9.04 workstation after I used the symlink booleans.so hack mentioned above. Is there a specific reason why PyXML shouldn't be in Ubuntu? Because now that python-xml has been removed completely, I probably won't be able to upgrade to future Ubuntu versions without pulling an outdated (or non- packaged) PyXML back in. -- python-xml seems to be broken with python-2.6: xpath does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/343242 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 343242] Re: python-xml seems to be broken with python-2.6: xpath does not work
As stated in the openerp-server bug, it seems like boolean.so is missing. But the directory /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/oldxml/_xmlplus/utils on my box contains the missing boolean.so, so i created a symlink in /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/_xmlplus/utils and it seems to be working now. (Note: I have no idea about python / python modules, just digging around a bit) I've done a little research about the files which python-xml installs: # dpkg -L python-xml | grep xmlplus /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/_xmlplus /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/_xmlplus/utils /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/_xmlplus/utils/boolean.so /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/oldxml/_xmlplus /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/oldxml/_xmlplus/utils /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/oldxml/_xmlplus/utils/boolean.so /usr/share/pyshared/oldxml/_xmlplus ... /usr/share/pyshared/oldxml/_xmlplus/utils /usr/share/pyshared/oldxml/_xmlplus/utils/__init__.py /usr/share/pyshared/oldxml/_xmlplus/utils/characters.py /usr/share/pyshared/oldxml/_xmlplus/utils/iso8601.py /usr/share/pyshared/oldxml/_xmlplus/utils/qp_xml.py ... /usr/share/pyshared/_xmlplus ... /usr/share/pyshared/_xmlplus/utils /usr/share/pyshared/_xmlplus/utils/__init__.py /usr/share/pyshared/_xmlplus/utils/characters.py /usr/share/pyshared/_xmlplus/utils/iso8601.py /usr/share/pyshared/_xmlplus/utils/qp_xml.py It seems to me like most files are installed twice or more (old/new directory structure?) but boolean.so is about the only file installed only once, and I'm guessing in a directory which isn't used anymore ;) -- python-xml seems to be broken with python-2.6: xpath does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/343242 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
