I've installed lxml via pip, and also did pip install --upgrade setuptools - doesn't help :( Tried to manually install from www.lfd.uci.edu lxml-4.9.0-cp311-cp311-win_amd64.whl and lxml-4.9.0-cp311-cp311-win32.whl - both are "not a supported wheel on this platform".

Seems like lxml library isn't available in python 3.12 (yet). Try downgrade python (3.10 maybe???) or ask the developers of that package.

Closing it due the issue is not from this package

[eXpressionist]

Just please change libxml==4.9.3 (actual version) in requirements and it should work.

p.s. works for me
