lxml (if you want to parse "broken" HTML; at least version 3.0);
cx_Oracle (if you want to use
ll.orasql);distribute (if you want to install this package as an egg);
pytest (if you want to run the test suite)
execnet (if you want to use ssh URLs)
and a C compiler supported by distutils, if you want to install the source distribution.
Installation
setuptools/distribute is used for installation so you can install this package with the following command:
$ easy_install ll-xist
or:
$ pip install ll-xist
If you want to install from source, you can download one of the distribution archives, unpack it, enter the directory and execute the following command:
$ python setup.py install
This will copy *.py files, compile *.c files and install everything in
the site-packages directory as the ll.xist package.
For some versions a Windows distribution is provided. To install it, double click it, and follow the instructions.
