I'm not sure posting the same question over and over and over again is really
the best way to get help.  I recommend waiting at least 24 hours, and making
sure that you add more information to each followup message.

But alright, I guess I can guess: the error message says that the libxml2mod
module doesn't have a xmlCtxtUseOptions function.  Two seconds with google
indicates that this is a libxml2 function that was added in 2.6.X.  If it's not avail-
able in your install, chances are that you're using an outdated version of libxml2
(or an old version of the Python bindings).
