  • Comment: BOM removal crashes with non-ASCII input

  • BOM removal crashes with non-ASCII input

    A problem in version 1.6b: When you are attempting to remove any BOM from the start of the text, you need to handle the fact that the input text might not be ASCII, even though it's a bytestring. Python will treat a bytestring as ASCII when you call things like text.startswith() in the normal default encoding setup, but it could be, e.g., a UTF-8 encoded bytestring. Attached patch fixes...

  • setup.py needs version updated

    The setup.py shipped with feedparser-3.1 still has the version number set to 3.0. This is a little annoying when building rpms.

  • Comment: strncmp not available on solaris

    Logged In: YES user_id=65682 This has been fixed for a long time. Although you do not mention the version you are reporting again, I have to assume it is 0.3.12. Please upgrade to 0.3.14.

  • Comment: Build of 0.3.13 fails with intltool problem

    Logged In: YES user_id=65682 I have released scrollkeeper-0.3.14 which fixes this problem.

However, from the above error message, that seems to be the case, since I suspect you would not have got that far if perl -e "require XML::Parser" failed.
