Description pankkake 2009-02-07 16:11:27 UTC 
The USE="xml" flag is available only starting from dev-lang/python-2.5.4-r2
Which means if you only unmask html5lib, it will refuse to be installed, whereas it could work perfectly with the stable python package.

Solutions (they both suck):
 - remove the [xml] from the requirements
 - require >=dev-lang/python-2.5.4-r2[xml]
 - ???

Reproducible: Always

Stable python now has an xml USE flag.
