Description: lxml is a Pythonic, mature binding for the libxml2 and libxslt libraries.  It
        provides safe and convenient access to these libraries using the ElementTree
        API.
        
        It extends the ElementTree API significantly to offer support for XPath,
        RelaxNG, XML Schema, XSLT, C14N and much more.
        
        To contact the project, go to the `project home page
        <http://lxml.de/>`_ or see our bug tracker at
        https://launchpad.net/lxml
        
        In case you want to use the current in-development version of lxml,
        you can get it from the github repository at
        https://github.com/lxml/lxml .  Note that this requires Cython to
        build the sources, see the build instructions on the project home
        page.  To the same end, running ``easy_install lxml==dev`` will
        install lxml from
        https://github.com/lxml/lxml/tarball/master#egg=lxml-dev if you have
        an appropriate version of Cython installed.
        
        
        After an official release of a new stable series, bug fixes may become
        available at
        https://github.com/lxml/lxml/tree/lxml-3.4 .
        Running ``easy_install lxml==3.4bugfix`` will install
        the unreleased branch state from
        https://github.com/lxml/lxml/tarball/lxml-3.4#egg=lxml-3.4bugfix
        as soon as a maintenance branch has been established.  Note that this
        requires Cython to be installed at an appropriate version for the build.
        
        3.4.0 (2014-09-10)
        ==================
        
        Features added
        --------------
        
        * ``xmlfile(buffered=False)`` disables output buffering and flushes the
          content after each API operation (starting/ending element blocks or writes).
          A new method ``xf.flush()`` can alternatively be used to explicitly flush
          the output.
        
        * ``lxml.html.document_fromstring`` has a new option ``ensure_head_body=True``
          which will add an empty head and/or body element to the result document if
          missing.
        
        * ``lxml.html.iterlinks`` now returns links inside meta refresh tags.
        
        * New ``XMLParser`` option ``collect_ids=False`` to disable ID hash table
          creation.  This can substantially speed up parsing of documents with many
          different IDs that are not used.
        
        * The parser uses per-document hash tables for XML IDs.  This reduces the
          load of the global parser dict and speeds up parsing for documents with
          many different IDs.
        
        * ``ElementTree.getelementpath(element)`` returns a structural ElementPath
          expression for the given element, which can be used for lookups later.
        
        * ``xmlfile()`` accepts a new argument ``close=True`` to close file(-like)
          objects after writing to them.  Before, ``xmlfile()`` only closed the file
          if it had opened it internally.
        
        * Allow "bytearray" type for ASCII text input.
        
        Bugs fixed
        ----------
        
        Other changes
        -------------
        
        * LP#400588: decoding errors have become hard errors even in recovery mode.
          Previously, they could lead to an internal tree representation in a mixed
          encoding state, which lead to very late errors or even silently incorrect
          behaviour during tree traversal or serialisation.
        
        * Requires Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.2 or later. No longer supports
          Python 2.4, 2.5 and 3.1, use lxml 3.3.x for those.
        
        * Requires libxml2 2.7.0 or later and libxslt 1.1.23 or later,
          use lxml 3.3.x with older versions.
