* Added the `Tag.get_attribute_list` method, which acts like `Tag.get` for
getting the value of an attribute, but which always returns a list,
whether or not the attribute is a multi-value attribute. [bug=1678589]
* Improved the handling of empty-element tags like <br> when using the
html.parser parser. [bug=1676935]
* HTML parsers treat all HTML4 and HTML5 empty element tags (aka void
element tags) correctly. [bug=1656909]
* Namespace prefix is preserved when an XML tag is copied. Thanks
to Vikas for a patch and test. [bug=1685172]

- update to 4.5.1:
* Fixed a crash when passing Unicode markup that contained a
processing instruction into the lxml HTML parser on Python
3. [bug=1608048]
* Beautiful Soup is no longer compatible with Python 2.6. This
actually happened a few releases ago, but it's now official.
* Beautiful Soup will now work with versions of html5lib greater than
0.99999999. [bug=1603299]
* If a search against each individual value of a multi-valued
attribute fails, the search will be run one final time against the
complete attribute value considered as a single string. That is, if
a tag has class="foo bar" and neither "foo" nor "bar" matches, but
"foo bar" does, the tag is now considered a match.
This happened in previous versions, but only when the value being
searched for was a string. Now it also works when that value is
a regular expression, a list of strings, etc. [bug=1476868]
* Fixed a bug that deranged the tree when a whitespace element was
reparented into a tag that contained an identical whitespace
element. [bug=1505351]
* Added support for CSS selector values that contain quoted spaces,
such as tag[style="display: foo"]. [bug=1540588]
* Corrected handling of XML processing instructions. [bug=1504393]
* Corrected an encoding error that happened when a BeautifulSoup
object was copied. [bug=1554439]
* The contents of <textarea> tags will no longer be modified when the
tree is prettified. [bug=1555829]
* When a BeautifulSoup object is pickled but its tree builder cannot
be pickled, its .builder attribute is set to None instead of being
destroyed. This avoids a performance problem once the object is
unpickled. [bug=1523629]

- Update to version 4.4.1
* Fixed a bug that deranged the tree when part of it was
removed. Thanks to Eric Weiser for the patch and John Wiseman for a
test. lp#1481520
* Fixed a parse bug with the html5lib tree-builder. Thanks to Roel
Kramer for the patch. lp#1483781
* Improved the implementation of CSS selector grouping. Thanks to
Orangain for the patch. lp#1484543
* Fixed the test_detect_utf8 test so that it works when chardet is
installed. lp#1471359
* Corrected the output of Declaration objects. lp#1477847

- update to 4.2.1:
* The default XML formatter will now replace ampersands even if they
appear to be part of entities. That is, "<" will become
"&lt;". The old code was left over from Beautiful Soup 3, which
didn't always turn entities into Unicode characters.
If you really want the old behavior (maybe because you add new
strings to the tree, those strings include entities, and you want
the formatter to leave them alone on output), it can be found in
EntitySubstitution.substitute_xml_containing_entities(). [bug=1182183]
* Gave new_string() the ability to create subclasses of
NavigableString. [bug=1181986]
* Fixed another bug by which the html5lib tree builder could create a
disconnected tree. [bug=1182089]
* The .previous_element of a BeautifulSoup object is now always None,
not the last element to be parsed. [bug=1182089]
* Fixed test failures when lxml is not installed. [bug=1181589]
* html5lib now supports Python 3. Fixed some Python 2-specific
code in the html5lib test suite. [bug=1181624]
* The html.parser treebuilder can now handle numeric attributes in
text when the hexidecimal name of the attribute starts with a
capital X. Patch by Tim Shirley. [bug=1186242]
