Description René Leonhardt 2006-12-17 13:59:36 UTC 
Hello,

I wanted to try libxml2-python-2.6.26.win32-py2.4.exe including libxslt 1.1.17 from
http://users.skynet.be/sbi/libxml-python/

But as soon as I try to import libxslt, Python 2.4.4 gives me a syntax error on WinXP Pro SP2, because it recognizes the "if" method as a keyword.


Traceback (most recent call last):

+ Trace 94853

  • File "test_libxml.py", line 2 in ? 
    import libxslt
  • File "Python\lib\site-packages\libxslt.py", line 731 
    def if(self, node, inst, comp):
SyntaxError: invalid syntax 


Best regards,
René

GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxslt/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
