wiz 029a0ddf94 Update py-lxml to 3.5.0:
3.5.0 (2015-11-13)
==================

Bugs fixed
----------

* Unicode string results failed XPath queries in PyPy.

* LP#1497051: HTML target parser failed to terminate on exceptions
  and continued parsing instead.

* Deprecated API usage in doctestcompare.


3.5.0b1 (2015-09-18)
====================

Features added
--------------

* ``cleanup_namespaces()`` accepts a new argument ``keep_ns_prefixes``
  that does not remove definitions of the provided prefix-namespace
  mapping from the tree.

* ``cleanup_namespaces()`` accepts a new argument ``top_nsmap`` that
  moves definitions of the provided prefix-namespace mapping to the
  top of the tree.

* LP#1490451: ``Element`` objects gained a ``cssselect()`` method as
  known from ``lxml.html``.  Patch by Simon Sapin.

* API functions and methods behave and look more like Python functions,
  which allows introspection on them etc.  One side effect to be aware of
  is that the functions now bind as methods when assigned to a class
  variable.  A quick fix is to wrap them in ``staticmethod()`` (as for
  normal Python functions).

* ISO-Schematron support gained an option ``error_finder`` that allows
  passing a filter function for picking validation errors from reports.

* LP#1243600: Elements in ``lxml.html`` gained a ``classes`` property
  that provides a set-like interface to the ``class`` attribute.
  Original patch by masklinn.

* LP#1341964: The soupparser now handles DOCTYPE declarations, comments
  and processing instructions outside of the root element.
  Patch by Olli Pottonen.

* LP#1421512: The ``docinfo`` of a tree was made editable to allow
  setting and removing the public ID and system ID of the DOCTYPE.
  Patch by Olli Pottonen.

* LP#1442427: More work-arounds for quirks and bugs in pypy and pypy3.

* ``lxml.html.soupparser`` now uses BeautifulSoup version 4 instead
  of version 3 if available.

Bugs fixed
----------

* Memory errors that occur during tree adaptations (e.g. moving subtrees
  to foreign documents) could leave the tree in a crash prone state.

* Calling ``process_children()`` in an XSLT extension element without
  an ``output_parent`` argument failed with a ``TypeError``.
  Fix by Jens Tröger.

* GH#162: Image data in HTML ``data`` URLs is considered safe and
  no longer removed by ``lxml.html.clean`` JavaScript cleaner.

* GH#166: Static build could link libraries in wrong order.

* GH#172: Rely a bit more on libxml2 for encoding detection rather than
  rolling our own in some cases.  Patch by Olli Pottonen.

* GH#159: Validity checks for names and string content were tightened
  to detect the use of illegal characters early.  Patch by Olli Pottonen.

* LP#1421921: Comments/PIs before the DOCTYPE declaration were not
  serialised.  Patch by Olli Pottonen.

* LP#659367: Some HTML DOCTYPE declarations were not serialised.
  Patch by Olli Pottonen.

* LP#1238503: lxml.doctestcompare is now consistent with stdlib's doctest
  in how it uses ``+`` and ``-`` to refer to unexpected and missing output.

* Empty prefixes are explicitly rejected when a namespace mapping is used
  with ElementPath to avoid hiding bugs in user code.

* Several problems with PyPy were fixed by switching to Cython 0.23.
