I'm attempting to use lxml
as the parser for BeautifulSoup because the default one is MUCH slower, however i'm getting this error:
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, "lxml")
File "/home/rob/python/stock/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/bs4/__init__.py", line 152, in __init__
% ",".join(features))
bs4.FeatureNotFound: Couldn't find a tree builder with the features you requested: lxml. Do you need to install a parser library?
I have uninstalled and reinstalled lxml as well as beautifulsoup many times, however it still will not read it. I've tried reinstalled lxml dependencies as well and i'm still getting this.
I even made a new virtual environment and installed fresh everything and still get this error.
Anyone have any idea whats going on here?

Using latest versions of bs4 and lxml on Python 2.7.x on ubuntu desktop
i can import lxml
but i cannot from lxml import etree
that is returning:
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxml2.so.2: version `LIBXML2_2.9.0' not found (required by /home/rob/python/stock/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/lxml/etree.so)
i have libxml however i'm not sure the version, but i installed and reinstalled the latest. also tried to manually install 2.9.0 and still nothing
