I'm on OSX Lion and I have libxml2 installed (by default) and I have python installed (by default) but they don't talk to one another. What's the simplest way to make this work on Lion?

$ python -c "import libxml2"
Traceback (most recent call last):File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named libxml2

1. Visit ftp://xmlsoft.org/libxml2/python/ and ensure this is the latest version
2. Download it
3. unpack it
4. open a term and cd to that directory
5. type sudo python setup.py install
6. ls /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/ and you should see a bunch of libxml2 files
7. try the test again and it should work

You'll need XCode installed, but like, you should already have that installed, right?
