%general-entities; ]> $LastChangedBy$ $Date$ Python modules The Python module packages add useful objects to the Python language. Modules utilized by packages throughout BLFS are listed here, along with their dependencies. Installation of the modules shown on this page is meant to follow from top to bottom to handle optional dependencies in each module. PyXML The PyXML package contains a validating XML parser, an implementation of the SAX and DOM programming interfaces, an interface to the Expat parser, and a C helper module that can speed up xmllib.py by a factor of five. This is useful for validating, parsing and manipulating XML files using Python programs. Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &pyxml-md5sum; Download size: &pyxml-size; Estimated disk space required: &pyxml-buildsize; Estimated build time: &pyxml-time; PyXML Dependencies Required User Notes: Install PyXML by running the following commands: python setup.py build Now, as the root user: python setup.py install && install -v -m644 doc/man/xmlproc_*.1 /usr/share/man/man1 && install -v -m755 -d /usr/share/doc/PyXML-&pyxml-version; && cp -v -R doc demo test /usr/share/doc/PyXML-&pyxml-version; && install -v -m644 README* /usr/share/doc/PyXML-&pyxml-version; To run the regression tests, the package must first be installed. Then, as an unprivileged user, issue the following commands: cd test && python regrtest.py && cd .. python setup.py build: This command copies the *.py files to a staging area and compiles the C extensions. python setup.py install: This command installs the package.
