I have spent quite some time on this, but can't figure it out,
probably because i am a Python newby.=20

When I tried to install pyxml 8.2 on python 2.1 (Suse Linux),
I got the mesagge

	ImportError: No module named xml.sax

when running tests from the test directory after a seemingly=20
smooth installation (python setup.py install). In fact none of
the packages from pyxml could be imported. I then upgraded my=20
pyhton to 2.2, hoping things would improve.

The installation still seems to work fine, but the error message remains=20
the same. Can anyone tell me, why? All installed packages seem to
live in site_packages/_xmlplus, but obviously cannot be found by python.

There is a lot of confusing stuff on the PYTHONPATH on the web, but=20
to a newby all this remains very cryptic!
