- update to version 4.9.1:
* Bugs fixed
+ A crash was resolved when using iterwalk() (or canonicalize())
after parsing certain incorrect input. Note that iterwalk() can
crash on valid input parsed with the same parser after failing
to parse the incorrect input.
Note: The doc pdf seems to be outdated, but I couldn't find any newer ones on their webpage. Perhaps the doc package should be deleted?

- update to 4.8.0:
* GH#337: Path-like objects are now supported throughout the API instead of
just strings.
* The ``ElementMaker`` now supports ``QName`` values as tags, which always
override the default namespace of the factory.
* GH#338: In lxml.objectify, the XSI float annotation "nan" and "inf" were spelled in
lower case, whereas XML Schema datatypes define them as "NaN" and "INF" respectively.
* Built with Cython 0.29.28.

- update to 4.7.1:
* Chunked Unicode string parsing via ``parser.feed()`` now encodes the input data
to the native UTF-8 encoding directly, instead of going through ``Py_UNICODE`` /
``wchar_t`` encoding first, which previously required duplicate recoding in most cases.
* The standard namespace prefixes were mishandled during "C14N2" serialisation on Python 3.
* ``lxml.objectify`` previously accepted non-XML numbers with underscores (like "1_000")
as integers or float values in Python 3.6 and later. It now adheres to the number
format of the XML spec again.
* LP#1939031: Static wheels of lxml now contain the header files of zlib and libiconv
(in addition to the already provided headers of libxml2/libxslt/libexslt).
* Wheels include libxml2 2.9.12+ and libxslt 1.1.34 (also on Windows).

* A vulnerability (CVE-2020-27783) was discovered in the HTML Cleaner by Yaniv Nizry,
which allowed JavaScript to pass through. The cleaner now removes more sneaky
"style" content.
* A vulnerability was discovered in the HTML Cleaner by Yaniv Nizry, which allowed
JavaScript to pass through. The cleaner now removes more sneaky "style" content.
* GH#310: ``lxml.html.InputGetter`` supports ``__len__()`` to count the number of input fields.
Patch by Aidan Woolley.
* ``lxml.html.InputGetter`` has a new ``.items()`` method to ease processing all input fields.
* ``lxml.html.InputGetter.keys()`` now returns the field names in document order.
* GH-309: The API documentation is now generated using ``sphinx-apidoc``.
* LP#1869455: C14N 2.0 serialisation failed for unprefixed attributes
when a default namespace was defined.
* ``TreeBuilder.close()`` raised ``AssertionError`` in some error cases where it
should have raised ``XMLSyntaxError``. It now raises a combined exception to
keep up backwards compatibility, while switching to ``XMLSyntaxError`` as an
interface.

- update to 4.5.2:
* ``Cleaner()`` now validates that only known configuration options can be set.
* LP#1882606: ``Cleaner.clean_html()`` discarded comments and PIs regardless of the
corresponding configuration option, if ``remove_unknown_tags`` was set.
* LP#1880251: Instead of globally overwriting the document loader in libxml2, lxml now
sets it per parser run, which improves the interoperability with other users of libxml2
such as libxmlsec.
* LP#1881960: Fix build in CPython 3.10 by using Cython 0.29.21.
* The setup options "--with-xml2-config" and "--with-xslt-config" were accidentally renamed
to "--xml2-config" and "--xslt-config" in 4.5.1 and are now available again.

for pretty-printing an XML tree.
* LP#1857794 Tail text of nodes that get removed from a document
using item deletion disappeared silently instead of sticking with the node
that was removed.
* LP#1840234: The package version number is now available as lxml.__version__
