Name        : python-lxml
Product     : Fedora 10
Version     : 2.1.5
Release     : 1.fc10
URL         : http://codespeak.net/lxml/
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.
