问题
I wrote a script some times ago that contain
from lxml import etree
But, unfortunatly it is not working anymore. In doubt i checked installation with :
sudo apt-get install python-lxml
sudo pip install lxml
sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev
sudo apt-get install libxslt1-dev
I checked if it could be my python version with :
me@pc:~$ python
Python 2.7.3 (default, Sep 14 2012, 14:11:57)
[GCC 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-21)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import lxml
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named lxml
My os is ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS with Python 2.7.3.
All seems fine. I can't see what could be the problem.
SOLVED:
Finally importing etree with
from xml import etree
Don't know why and if there is a difference but it's working as expected.
回答1:
Your solution cited in edit, which use the xml.etree instead of lxml.etree is not the better way to do it, as these module have known incompatibilities, and mainly because lxml is certainly more optimised.
A good way to make a clean environment available is to use virtualenv :
$ virtualenv myproject
$ cd myproject
$ ./bin/pip install lxml # Repeat this with other dependencies
[wait for download and compiling]
Then, use ./bin/python to execute your script. The advantages of this method are :
- you can have different versions of dependencies between your system and your project
- even if you break everything in your virtual environment, you will not compromised the rest of your system
- you do not need root privileges to make an installation
As a reference, a more powerful but slightly more complex way to achieve this is to use buildout, but it can looks like hunting flies with a bazooka if you just want to execute a simple one-file script.

Solved the problem.
It seems that a software that i installed messed out my python path. The python that i was using when calling python in a terminal was the one installed by the software, and the one called by my script was the one installed on my system.
So, i just removed the python path of the software from the path variable of bash.

I had this problem when running tests in PyCharm. I could import lxml when using the terminal and virtual environment, but using the same virtual environment to run the tests resulted in the ImportError.
In my case upgrading from lxml 3.3.5 to 4.2.5 fixed the problem.

For Python 3.6, it is very tricky.
I have the same problem and try to install the latest version, lxml 3.8. But I still get the error. And then I use lxml 3.7.3, then it is ok.
