- Update to 6.0.0:
* ``lxml.html.diff`` is faster and provides structurally better diffs.
* The factories ``Element`` and ``ElementTree`` can now be used in type
hints.
* Parsing from ``memoryview`` and other buffers is supported to allow
zero-copy parsing.
* ``lxml.html.builder`` was missing several HTML5 tag names.
* ``CDATA`` can now be written into the incremental ``xmlfile()`` writer.
* A new parser option ``decompress=False`` was added that controls the
automatic input decompression when using libxml2 2.15.0 or later.
* The set of compile time / runtime supported libxml2 feature names is
available as ``etree.LIBXML_COMPILED_FEATURES`` and
``etree.LIBXML_FEATURES``.
* Predicates in ``.find*()`` could mishandle tag indices if a default
namespace is provided.
* The ``head`` and ``body`` properties of ``lxml.html`` elements failed
if no such element was found. They now return ``None`` instead.
* Tag names provided by code (API, not data) that are longer than
``INT_MAX`` could be truncated or mishandled in other ways.
* ``.text_content()`` on ``lxml.html`` elements accidentally returned
a "smart string" without additional information. It now returns a plain
string.
* Support for Python < 3.8 was removed.
* Parsing directly from zlib (or lzma) compressed data is now considered
an optional feature in lxml.
* The ``Schematron`` class is deprecated and will become non-functional in
a future lxml version.
* Built using Cython 3.1.2.
* The debug methods ``MemDebug.dump()`` and ``MemDebug.show()`` were
removed completely.

- GH#417: The test_feed_parser test could fail if lxml_html_clean
was not installed. It is now skipped in that case.
- LP#2059910: The minimum CPU architecture for the Linux x86 binary

``SyntaxError`` where it should have issued a warning.
- GH#416: The documentation build was using the non-standard
``which`` command. Patch by Michał Górny.
- 5.2.0
- LP#1958539: The ``lxml.html.clean`` implementation suffered from
several (only if used) security issues in the past and was now
extracted into a separate library:
https://github.com/fedora-python/lxml_html_clean
Projects that use lxml without "lxml.html.clean" will not notice
any difference, except that they won't have potentially vulnerable
code installed. The module is available as an "extra" setuptools
dependency "lxml[html_clean]", so that Projects that need
"lxml.html.clean" will need to switch their requirements from
"lxml" to "lxml[html_clean]", or install the new library
themselves.

clear everything but the tail text. This is helpful in some document-style
use cases.
* When creating attributes or namespaces from a dict in Python 3.6+, lxml now
preserves the original insertion order of that dict, instead of always sorting
the items by name. A similar change was made for ElementTree in CPython 3.8.
See https://bugs.python.org/issue34160
* Integer elements in ``lxml.objectify`` implement the ``__index__()`` special method.
* GH#269: Read-only elements in XSLT were missing the ``nsmap`` property.
Original patch by Jan Pazdziora.
* ElementInclude can now restrict the maximum inclusion depth via a ``max_depth``
argument to prevent content explosion. It is limited to 6 by default.
* The ``target`` object of the XMLParser can have ``start_ns()`` and ``end_ns()``
callback methods to listen to namespace declarations.
* The ``TreeBuilder`` has new arguments ``comment_factory`` and ``pi_factory`` to
pass factories for creating comments and processing instructions, as well as
flag arguments ``insert_comments`` and ``insert_pis`` to discard them from the
tree when set to false.
* A `C14N 2.0 <https://www.w3.org/TR/xml-c14n2/>`_ implementation was added as
``etree.canonicalize()``, a corresponding ``C14NWriterTarget`` class, and
a ``c14n2`` serialisation method.

with pseudo-attributes.
* ``CDATA()`` wrapped content was rejected for tail text.
* CDATA sections were not serialised as tail text of the top-level element.
* New ``htmlfile`` HTML generator to accompany the incremental ``xmlfile``
serialisation API. Patch by Burak Arslan.
* ``lxml.sax.ElementTreeContentHandler`` did not initialise its superclass.

- Update to version 3.3.2:
- The properties resolvers and version, as well as the methods
set_element_class_lookup() and makeelement(), were lost from iterparse
objects.
- LP#1222132: instances of XMLSchema, Schematron and RelaxNG did not clear
their local error_log before running a validation.
- LP#1238500: lxml.doctestcompare mixed up "expected" and "actual" in
attribute values.
- Some file I/O tests were failing in MS-Windows due to incorrect temp file
usage. Initial patch by Gabi Davar.
- LP#910014: duplicate IDs in a document were not reported by DTD
validation.
- LP#1185332: tostring(method="html") did not use HTML serialisation
semantics for trailing tail text. Initial patch by Sylvain Viollon.
- LP#1281139: .attrib value of Comments lost its mutation methods in 3.3.0.
Even though it is empty and immutable, it should still provide the same
interface as that returned for Elements.

- update to 3.2.1:
* The methods ``apply_templates()`` and ``process_children()`` of XSLT
extension elements have gained two new boolean options ``elements_only``
and ``remove_blank_text`` that discard either all strings or whitespace-only
strings from the result list.
* When moving Elements to another tree, the namespace cleanup mechanism
no longer drops namespace prefixes from attributes for which it finds
a default namespace declaration, to prevent them from appearing as
unnamespaced attributes after serialisation.
* Returning non-type objects from a custom class lookup method could lead
to a crash.
* Instantiating and using subtypes of Comments and ProcessingInstructions
crashed. (forwarded request 175226 from dirkmueller)

* Leading whitespace could change the behaviour of the string
parsing functions in ``lxml.html``.
* LP#599318: The string parsing functions in ``lxml.html`` are more robust
in the face of uncommon HTML content like framesets or missing body tags.
Patch by Stefan Seelmann.
* LP#712941: I/O errors while trying to access files with paths that contain
non-ASCII characters could raise ``UnicodeDecodeError`` instead of properly
reporting the ``IOError``.
* LP#673205: Parsing from in-memory strings disabled network access in the
default parser and made subsequent attempts to parse from a URL fail.
* LP#971754: lxml.html.clean appends 'nofollow' to 'rel' attributes instead
of overwriting the current value.
* LP#715687: lxml.html.clean no longer discards scripts that are explicitly

- Update to version 2.3.3:
* lxml.html.tostring() gained new serialisation options with_tail and doctype.
* Fixed a crash when using iterparse() for HTML parsing and requesting start events.
* Fixed parsing of more selectors in cssselect. Whitespace before
pseudo-elements and pseudo-classes is significant as it is a descendant
combinator. "E :pseudo" should parse the same as "E *:pseudo", not "E:pseudo".
* lxml.html.diff no longer raises an exception when hitting 'img' tags without 'src' attribute.
- Changes from version 2.3.2:
* lxml.objectify.deannotate() has a new boolean option cleanup_namespaces to
remove the objectify namespace declarations (and generally clean up the
namespace declarations) after removing the type annotations.
* lxml.objectify gained its own SubElement() function as a copy of
etree.SubElement to avoid an otherwise redundant import of lxml.etree on the user side.
* Fixed the "descendant" bug in cssselect a second time
* Fixed parsing of some selectors in cssselect.
- Changes from version 2.3.1:
* New option kill_tags in lxml.html.clean to remove specific tags and their
content (i.e. their whole subtree).
* pi.get() and pi.attrib on processing instructions to parse
pseudo-attributes from the text content of processing instructions.
* lxml.get_include() returns a list of include paths that can be used to
compile external C code against lxml.etree.
* Resolver.resolve_file() takes an additional option close_file that
configures if the file(-like) object will be closed after reading or not.
* HTML cleaning didn't remove 'data:' links.
* The html5lib parser integration now uses the 'official' implementation in
html5lib itself, which makes it work with newer releases of the library.
* In lxml.sax, endElementNS() could incorrectly reject a plain tag name when
the corresponding start event inferred the same plain tag name to be in the default namespace.
* When an open file-like object is passed into parse() or iterparse(), the

OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/devel:languages:python/python-lxml?expand=0&rev=38
Features added
* When looking for children, lxml.objectify takes '{}tag' as
meaning an empty namespace, as opposed to the parent namespace.
Bugs fixed
* When finished reading from a file-like object, the parser
immediately calls its close() method.
* When finished parsing, iterparse() immediately closes the input
file.
* Work-around for libxml2 bug that can leave the HTML parser in a
non-functional state after parsing a severly broken document (fixed
in libxml2 2.7.8).
* marque tag in HTML cleanup code is correctly named marquee.
