[Framework-Team] wicked - lxml dependency?

2007-02-13 Thread Hanno Schlichting
Heya.

I noticed that a lot of tests in wicked fail on my machine, as I don't
have lxml installed.

Is lxml a real dependency for the functionality we use in Plone or is it
optional or only required to run the tests?

Hanno

P.S. I tried to install lxml via easy_install and while it claims to
install fine, I get Bus errors during test runs of wicked then :(

it's used in the tests (to strip whitespace). iirc, any working version 
of libxml2 should work(both for the test and lxml, though lxml needs to 
be rather current).  lxml or libxml is not needed for any of wicked's 
functionality.

Ah ok, great. I got lxml running on Windows (as there's a pre-built
binary release) and all tests did indeed pass.

Thx for the clarification,
Hanno

If lxml is not required (but can be used) by wicked then the tests
should reflect the same thing imho.  The tests should conditionally
test lxml only if available.

If the tests fail because lxml doesn't exist, then wicked itself
shouldn't work when deployed either without lxml.
