Python – Unable to import name ‘etree’

An

error occurred while trying to run sample .py from the serpscrap package.

I use iPhoneX in Pythonista.

Any help would be appreciated.

This is backtracking

SerpScrap does not currently run on iOS because of lxml dependencies.
I will update the documentation to clarify this.

But maybe you can look at https://github.com/pybee/Python-Apple-support .
I’m not familiar with iOS, maybe someone can check if this helps with this. Otherwise, feel free to ask questions on the Serpscrap GitHub page.
