Thanks. I fixed it by discarding the erroneous "print" before building libxslt. Past that obstacle, I tested the release with lxml in Python and found a bunch of tests (>40) from lxml's test suite failing due to changes in the serialiser. Most of them are due to a line break that was apparently added to the end of the output, e.g. """ AssertionError: b'<html><head><title>test</title></head><body><p>test</p></body></html>\n' != b'<html><head><title>test</title></head><body><p>test</p></body></html>' """ Difficult to say if this is an improvement or deliberate breakage. Technically, it's not a semantic change in the XML output, rather a byte level change in ignorable whitespace. But I'll need to look into it further to understand what the best adaptation to this change is. More importantly, there also seem to be issues where additional closing tags or duplicated PIs and comments are being written, e.g. """ AssertionError: '<p><span>Cyan</span></p></body></html>\n' != '<p><span>Cyan</span></p>' """ or """ AssertionError: b'<!D[123 chars]<body><p>Hello world!</p></body></html><?foo bar>\n<?foo bar?>' != b'<!D[123 chars]<body><p>Hello world!</p></body></html><?foo bar?>' """ I haven't looked into them in detail yet but will do so as soon as I find the time (probably during the next days). It's not possible that lxml is doing something here that libxml2 doesn't expect, but we'll see.
