Using cssselect2 makes WeasyPrint free from lxml (close #440), and gives us hope on our long way to close #57. A lot of things in the private API have changed, mainly to bring the base URL everywhere, but there's no real big change.
The only real downside is the loss of the source line in various logging messages. ElementTree and html5lib don't store the
sourceline
attributes in elements (see html5lib/html5lib-python#97), WeasyPrint can't do anything without this.If anyone is interested in this change (and in cssselect2), please read Kozea/cssselect2#5. And don't hesitate to contribute if you're interested in CSS Selectors Level 4!
