Name        : python-lxml
Product     : Fedora 19
Version     : 3.2.1
Release     : 1.fc19
URL         : http://lxml.de
Summary     : ElementTree-like Python bindings for libxml2 and libxslt
Description :
lxml provides a Python binding to the libxslt and libxml2 libraries.
It follows the ElementTree API as much as possible in order to provide
a more Pythonic interface to libxml2 and libxslt than the default
bindings.  In particular, lxml deals with Python Unicode strings
rather than encoded UTF-8 and handles memory management automatically,
unlike the default bindings.

Update Information:

3.2.1 (2013-05-11)
==================

Features added
--------------

* The methods ``apply_templates()`` and ``process_children()`` of XSLT
  extension elements have gained two new boolean options ``elements_only``
  and ``remove_blank_text`` that discard either all strings or
  whitespace-only strings from the result list.

Bugs fixed
----------

* When moving Elements to another tree, the namespace cleanup mechanism
  no longer drops namespace prefixes from attributes for which it finds
  a default namespace declaration, to prevent them from appearing as
  unnamespaced attributes after serialisation.

* Returning non-type objects from a custom class lookup method could lead
  to a crash.

* Instantiating and using subtypes of Comments and ProcessingInstructions
  crashed.
3.2.0 (2013-04-28)
==================

Features added
--------------

Bugs fixed
----------

* LP#690319: Leading whitespace could change the behaviour of the string
  parsing functions in ``lxml.html``.

* LP#599318: The string parsing functions in ``lxml.html`` are more robust
  in the face of uncommon HTML content like framesets or missing body tags.
  Patch by Stefan Seelmann.

* LP#712941: I/O errors while trying to access files with paths that
  contain non-ASCII characters could raise ``UnicodeDecodeError`` instead
  of properly reporting the ``IOError``.

* LP#673205: Parsing from in-memory strings disabled network access in the
  default parser and made subsequent attempts to parse from a URL fail.

* LP#971754: lxml.html.clean appends 'nofollow' to 'rel' attributes instead
  of overwriting the current value.

* LP#715687: lxml.html.clean no longer discards scripts that are explicitly
  allowed by the user provided whitelist.  Patch by Christine Koppelt.

3.1.2 (2013-04-12)
==================

Bugs fixed
----------

* LP#1136509: Passing attributes through the namespace-unaware API of
  the sax bridge (i.e. the ``handler.startElement()`` method) failed
  with a ``TypeError``.  Patch by Mike Bayer.

* LP#1123074: Fix serialisation error in XSLT output when converting
  the result tree to a Unicode string.

* GH#105: Replace illegal usage of ``xmlBufLength()`` in libxml2 2.9.0
  by properly exported API function ``xmlBufUse()``.

3.1.1 (2013-03-29)
==================

Features added
--------------

Bugs fixed
----------

* LP#1160386: Write access to ``lxml.html.FormElement.fields`` raised
  an AttributeError in Py3.

* Illegal memory access during cleanup in incremental xmlfile writer.

Other changes
-------------

* The externally useless class ``lxml.etree._BaseParser`` was removed
  from the module dict.
