collectd/collectd — Issue #34: Python plugin: Can't resolve object from lxml
Author: octo

From: *Dennis* (Mantis #23)

**Description:** As soon as I include the following line

```python
from lxml include etree
```

the plugin won't load and reports:

```
Unhandled python exception in importing module: \
ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/lxml/objectify.so: \
undefined symbol: PyExc_BaseException
```

Running the plugin standalone (with all collectd depending stuff disabled, but `lxml.etree` still enabled) however works well.

**Steps To Reproduce:** add the following:

```python
from lxml include etree
```
