lxml should install from a wheel (e.g. lxml-3.8.0-cp36-cp36m-win_amd64.whl). There's nothing to build, so the most likely reason for failing would be getting denied access to modify site-packages. > My guess is that you need Administrator privileges to install the > packages.

If you've installed Python for all users in the default location in %ProgramFiles% or %ProgramFiles(x86), then you will need to use an elevated command prompt to install to the system site-packages. A standard user or UAC restricted administrator does not have the right to modify this directory. Alternatively you can install a package just for the current user with pip's "--user" option. You can also install packages in a virtual environment created with the venv module, which is convenient for development. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
