How to install python library

[Mouton]

i installed pyxml on my mac (avail at http://pyxml.sf.net).
i tried copying the lib/site-packages/_xmlplus/* to the xbox in xbmc/python/lib/xml/*
but running the script crash on 'from xml import xpath'
there is a xbmc/python/lib/xml/xpath directory... but it doesn't seem to find it.
how can i install pyxml on xbmc ?

thanks.

i also tried to install it in python/lib/site-packages/_xmlplus/* like it is on my mac; didn't work.
and i tried to use libxml2 with no luck (not sure this one has any chance to load, since it uses dll!); but the problem seems to be the same: python doesn't seem to see it in the lib dir...

do you really need pyxml?

the python23.zlib in cvs has support for the standard python 2.3 xml libraries, including dom, expat, and sax.

i was missing xpath in the default xml implementation of python.
i finally found that my package needed to be named _xmlplus, which is the package name which xml/.py load by default if found.
by copying the xml/* files from python23.zlib and by adding the modules i needed (xpath, utils, etc) i was able to make it work.
