I just installed the PyXML-0.5.5.1 software on my SparcStation here
at work.

I ran the PyXML-0.5.5.1/test/testxml.py script and got the following
results:

> blackriver /export/home/PyXML-0.5.5.1/test> python testxml.py
> test_dom
> test_dom2
> Warning: can't open ./output/test_dom2
> <DOM Document; root=<Element 'doc'> >
> test_domu
> test_howto
> test_htmlb
> test_marshal
> test_pyexpat
> test test_pyexpat failed -- Writing: 'Summary of XML parser upcalls:', expected:
>  'Parser returned 1\012Summary of X'
> test_sax
> test_unicode
> test_utils
> test_xmllib
> test test_xmllib skipped -- an optional feature could not be imported
> 9 tests OK.
> 1 test failed: test_pyexpat
> 1 test skipped: test_xmllib
> blackriver /export/home/PyXML-0.5.5.1/test>


I then ran the test_xmllib.py script and recieved the following error:

> blackriver /export/home/PyXML-0.5.5.1/test> python  test_xmllib.py
> Traceback (innermost last):
>   File "test_xmllib.py", line 25, in ?
>     from xml.parsers import xmllib
> ImportError: cannot import name xmllib
> blackriver /export/home/PyXML-0.5.5.1/test>


Are these errors worth worrying about, or should I just get on with using
(learning) Python and XML?

Thanks in Advance!
