can't reproduce this. what version of 4Suite do you have? LANG="en_US" python -c "import xml.dom.MessageSource"
I do not have 4suite installed: * dev-python/4suite Latest version available: 1.0_alpha3 Latest version installed: [ Not Installed ] Size of downloaded files: 2,290 kB Homepage: http://www.4suite.org/ Description: Python tools for XML processing and object-databases. License: Apache-1.1 But I do have dev-python/pyxml-0.8.2 installed and /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/_xmlplus/dom/MessageSource.py belongs to it: sascha@cube:~$ qpkg -v -f /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/_xmlplus/dom/MessageSource.py dev-python/pyxml-0.8.2 *
can you please try pyxml-0.8.3 ? this should be fixed with that version.
With pyxml-0.8.3 it works fine. Thanks!
thanks for getting back. i've bumped 0.8.3 to stable now.
