Sorry for the late reply. I've been using lxml 1.3.x for a while on MacOS, using the Python 2.4 installed by MacPorts (along with the libxml2 and libxslt). This configuration works well for me, but heed the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH suggestion. You need to make sure this is set to the correct value for both building and (especially) runtime. If you build lxml using the DYLD set but don't have it set at runtime, lxml will report that it is using the correct versions of libraries, when it is actually not. I think I reported that on this list a while ago. I use lxml within a Zope/Plone installation, and also from within Eclipse. However, I have not used lxml 2.0 in this config, so YMMV. But, I would suggest getting everything from MacPorts (python, libxml, etc.). Also, note that it seems like the recent MacPorts builds only create python2.4 and python2.5 binaries -- it's up to you to either link "python" to one of these, or make sure your config settings explicitly call /usr/local/bin/python2.4 Good luck ET On 2/2/08 8:50 AM, "js" <ebgssth@gmail.com> wrote:
Beats me. I've never used the framework Python. Not 100% sure but I *think* MacPorts python will work even if you installed the framework python, so If you don't have to stick to, give it a try.

Hi Stefan and Jon,
I've just intalled lxml-2.0 on OS X Tiger by using MacPorts and it worked without any problem. lxml-2.0 port is not yet available so I have to patch the portfile. I already sent the patch to MacPorts team so I hope that will be available soon. You can fetch the patch from below. http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/14137
Thanks.
I use the framework Python from python.org rather than the python available from macports, so it's my understanding that I can't use any macports python packages. Am I wrong?
