Description Aaron Sowry cendio 2012-05-08 14:36:49 CEST 
SuSE have actually packaged python-xml separately, even though it "should" be baked-in to python >= 2.0. This means it is possible (although perhaps not very likely) that the xml module could be missing.

Currently, this makes tl-setup explode with tracebacks all over the place when zypperbackend tries to import the xml module. If we want to be really ambitious, perhaps we could catch ImportErrors here.

This is no longer an issue now that we switched to Python 3. The xml modules is now packaged with Python as it should be.
