Installation

Install QGIS using the OSGEO4W installer. Select the modules qgis and qgis-full under the Desktop category and install any suggested dependencies. Now, you just need to install the lxml module.

For linux and OSX platforms:

Use easy_install to install it. Make sure the development packages of libxml2 and libxslt are installed first. Otherwise, your compiler with barf.

For windows:

The python-win32 module can be installed via the OSGE4W installer. The precompiled binaries for the lxml module is available at http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#lxml. Depending on the whether you've installed the 32-bit or 64-bit of QGIS, the file you need to download will be either lxml-3.3.6.win-amd64-py2.7.exe (64-bit) or lxml-3.3.6.win32-py2.7.exe (32-bit).

Do NOT click on the file to run it after downloading. Instead, open an OSGEO4W shell and issue the following command

easy_install location-of-the-downloaded-lxml.exe-file

If easy_install is not found, download the file get-pip.py and install it, by executing the following command in the OSGEO4W Shell first

python get-pip.py
