You can (and should) use "pip" instead. However, that's not the thing that Brett meant here. Basically, what he's saying is that he can build lxml just fine on his side, which, I assume, also runs MacOS-X Lion. Stefan

Yes, specifically I was striving for the "simplest" path that might help someone with Python 2.7.2, LXML 2.3.5 and Mountain Lion (10.8.1)... which is what I am running. I also just took the commands documented on the LXML site for installing on previous versions of Mac OS X, hence the easy_install. Sorry for the lack of contextual clarity.
