Created attachment 600143 [details] Remove pyxml prettyprint use Description of problem: We're looking into getting rid of PyXML in Fedora 18 as it's dead upstream, suffers unfixed bugs, and has the dubious behaviour of overwriting the python stdlib's xml module with its own code: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=795875 Reviewing xen's use of PyXML, I have the following recommendations: * It looks like upstream xen actively ported away from PyXML to lxml. If that's complete the fedora package just has old deps that need to be updated: - Requires: PyXML + Requires: python-lxml Adding Requires: python-lxml needs to be done whether or not the PyXML Requires can be removed right away. Reviewing the code, I also found one place that's still using a PyXML module. xm create with certain options can attempt to use PyXML to PrettyPrint its output. I'll attach a patch to trivially fix this to use stdlib functionality instead. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xen-4.1.2-2
