textproc/py-lxml,
Python binding for libxml2 and libxslt
Branch: CURRENT,
Version: 6.0.2nb1,
Package name: py313-lxml-6.0.2nb1,
Maintainer: pkgsrc-userslxml is a Pythonic binding for the libxml2 and libxslt libraries.
It is unique in that it combines the speed and feature completeness
of these libraries with the simplicity of a native Python API,
mostly compatible but superior to the well-known ElementTree API.
Required to run:[
textproc/libxml2] [
textproc/libxslt] [
lang/python310]

py-lxml: update to 6.0.0.
6.0.0 (2025-06-26)
==================
Features added
--------------
* GH#463: ``lxml.html.diff`` is faster and provides structurally better diffs.
Original patch by Steven Fernandez.
* GH#405: The factories ``Element`` and ``ElementTree`` can now be used in type \
hints.
* GH#448: Parsing from ``memoryview`` and other buffers is supported to allow \
zero-copy parsing.
* GH#437: ``lxml.html.builder`` was missing several HTML5 tag names.
Patch by Nick Tarleton.
* GH#458: ``CDATA`` can now be written into the incremental ``xmlfile()`` writer.
Original patch by Lane Shaw.
* A new parser option ``decompress=False`` was added that controls the automatic
input decompression when using libxml2 2.15.0 or later. Disabling this option
by default will effectively prevent decompression bombs when handling untrusted
input. Code that depends on automatic decompression must enable this option.
Note that libxml2 2.15.0 was not released yet, so this option currently has no
effect but can already be used.
* The set of compile time / runtime supported libxml2 feature names is available as
``etree.LIBXML_COMPILED_FEATURES`` and ``etree.LIBXML_FEATURES``.
This currently includes
``catalog``, ``ftp``, ``html``, ``http``, ``iconv``, ``icu``,
``lzma``, ``regexp``, ``schematron``, ``xmlschema``, ``xpath``, ``zlib``.
Bugs fixed
----------
* GH#353: Predicates in ``.find*()`` could mishandle tag indices if a default \
namespace is provided.
Original patch by Luise K.
* GH#272: The ``head`` and ``body`` properties of ``lxml.html`` elements failed \
if no such element
was found. They now return ``None`` instead.
Original patch by FVolral.
* 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.
* LP#2109931: When building lxml with coverage reporting, it now disables the \
``sys.monitoring``
support due to the lack of support in \
https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/issues/1790
Other changes
-------------
* Support for Python < 3.8 was removed.
* Parsing directly from zlib (or lzma) compressed data is now considered an optional
feature in lxml. It may get removed from libxml2 at some point for security \
reasons
(compression bombs) and is therefore no longer guaranteed to be available in lxml.
As of this release, zlib support is still normally available in the binary wheels
but may get disabled or removed in later (x.y.0) releases. To test the \
availability,
use ``"zlib" in etree.LIBXML_FEATURES``.
* The ``Schematron`` class is deprecated and will become non-functional in a \
future lxml version.
The feature will soon be removed from libxml2 and stop being available.
* GH#438: Wheels include the ``arm7l`` target.
* GH#465: Windows wheels include the ``arm64`` target.
Patch by Finn Womack.
* Binary wheels use the library versions libxml2 2.14.4 and libxslt 1.1.43.
Note that this disables direct HTTP and FTP support for parsing from URLs.
Use Python URL request tools instead (which usually also support HTTPS).
To test the availability, use ``"http" in etree.LIBXML_FEATURES``.
* Windows binary wheels use the library versions libxml2 2.11.9, libxslt 1.1.39 \
and libiconv 1.17.
They are now based on VS-2022.
* Built using Cython 3.1.2.
* The debug methods ``MemDebug.dump()`` and ``MemDebug.show()`` were removed \
completely.
libxml2 2.13.0 discarded this feature.

libxslt 1.1.39.)
