* Package name : html5-parser Version : 0.4.3 Upstream Author : Kovid Goyal <ko...@kovidgoyal.net> * URL : https://github.com/kovidgoyal/html5-parser * License : Apache Programming Lang: Python Description : necessary dependency for calibre A fast implementation of the HTML 5 parsing spec for Python. Parsing is done in C using a variant of the gumbo parser. The gumbo parse tree is then transformed into an lxml tree, also in C, yielding parse times that can be a thirtieth of the html5lib parse times. That is a speedup of 30x. This differs, for instance, from the gumbo python bindings, where the initial parsing is done in C but the transformation into the final tree is done in python. Will be maintained in collab-maint.
