------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Oct 22 13:00:00 UTC 2013 - toddrme2178@gmail.com - update to 4.3.2 * Fixed a bug in which short Unicode input was improperly encoded to ASCII when checking whether or not it was the name of a file on disk. [bug=1227016] * Fixed a crash when a short input contains data not valid in filenames. [bug=1232604] * Fixed a bug that caused Unicode data put into UnicodeDammit to return None instead of the original data. [bug=1214983] * Combined two tests to stop a spurious test failure when tests are run by nosetests. [bug=1212445] - update to 4.3.1 * Fixed yet another problem with the html5lib tree builder, caused by html5lib's tendency to rearrange the tree during parsing. [bug=1189267] * Fixed a bug that caused the optimized version of find_all() to return nothing. [bug=1212655] - update to 4.3.0 * Instead of converting incoming data to Unicode and feeding it to the lxml tree builder in chunks, Beautiful Soup now makes successive guesses at the encoding of the incoming data, and tells lxml to parse the data as that encoding. Giving lxml more control over the parsing process improves performance and avoids a number of bugs and issues with the lxml parser which had previously required elaborate workarounds: - An issue in which lxml refuses to parse Unicode strings on some systems. [bug=1180527] - A returning bug that truncated documents longer than a (very small) size. [bug=963880] - A returning bug in which extra spaces were added to a document if the document defined a charset other than UTF-8. [bug=972466] This required a major overhaul of the tree builder architecture. If you wrote your own tree builder and didn't tell me, you'll need to modify your prepare_markup() method. * The UnicodeDammit code that makes guesses at encodings has been split into its own class, EncodingDetector. A lot of apparently redundant code has been removed from Unicode, Dammit, and some undocumented features have also been removed. * Beautiful Soup will issue a warning if instead of markup you pass it a URL or the name of a file on disk (a common beginner's mistake). * A number of optimizations improve the performance of the lxml tree builder by about 33%, the html.parser tree builder by about 20%, and the html5lib tree builder by about 15%. * All find_all calls should now return a ResultSet object. Patch by Aaron DeVore. [bug=1194034] ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Jul 19 17:07:52 UTC 2013 - berendt@b1-systems.de - remove .buildinfo before installation ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Jul 18 08:25:50 UTC 2013 - berendt@b1-systems.de - removed python-lxml as build requirement to be able to successfully pass the check section on SLES11 SP3 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Jun 27 13:32:06 UTC 2013 - speilicke@suse.com - Update upstream URL ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Jun 25 11:52:34 UTC 2013 - dmueller@suse.com - 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] ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Jun 10 20:34:00 UTC 2013 - dmueller@suse.com - disable tests on SLE_11, fail due to too old python-lxml ------------------------------------------------------------------- Sat May 18 13:30:00 UTC 2013 - toddrme2178@gmail.com - Update to 4.2.0 * The Tag.select() method now supports a much wider variety of CSS selectors. - Added support for the adjacent sibling combinator (+) and the general sibling combinator (~). Tests by "liquider". [bug=1082144] - The combinators (>, +, and ~) can now combine with any supported selector, not just one that selects based on tag name. - Added limited support for the "nth-of-type" pseudo-class. Code by Sven Slootweg. [bug=1109952] * The BeautifulSoup class is now aliased to "_s" and "_soup", making it quicker to type the import statement in an interactive session The alias may change in the future, so don't use this in code you're going to run more than once. * Added the 'diagnose' submodule, which includes several useful functions for reporting problems and doing tech support. - diagnose(data) tries the given markup on every installed parser, reporting exceptions and displaying successes. If a parser is not installed, diagnose() mentions this fact. - lxml_trace(data, html=True) runs the given markup through lxml's XML parser or HTML parser, and prints out the parser events as they happen. This helps you quickly determine whether a given problem occurs in lxml code or Beautiful Soup code. - htmlparser_trace(data) is the same thing, but for Python's built-in HTMLParser class. * In an HTML document, the contents of a
