@@ -1,5 +1,19 @@ = 4.7.0 (Unreleased) +* Beautiful Soup's CSS Selector implementation has been replaced by a + dependency on Isaac Muse's SoupSieve project (the soupsieve package + on PyPI). The good news is that SoupSieve has a much more robust and + complete implementation of CSS selectors, resolving a large number + of longstanding issues. The bad news is that from this point onward, + SoupSieve must be installed if you want to use the select() method. + + You don't have to change anything lf you installed Beautiful Soup + through pip (SoupSieve will be automatically installed when you + upgrade Beautiful Soup) or if you don't use CSS selectors from + within Beautiful Soup. + + SoupSieve documentation: https://facelessuser.github.io/soupsieve/ + * Fix a number of problems with the tree builder that caused trees that were superficially okay, but which fell apart when bits were extracted. Patch by Isaac Muse. [bug=1782928] |
