object has no attribute clean Error when using parse method

[rohiniragunathan]

I am getting an error below, but it was previously working, and works in another program where I use the parse method. Is there something I may be doing wrong?

When I call it in the shell, there is no error.

 >>> article_cleaner = lxml.html.clean.Cleaner()

My code:

from newspaper import Article

article = Article(url="http://sports.nationalpost.com/2014/11/22/toronto-raptors-overcome-slow-start-to-hand-cleveland-cavaliers-fourth-straight-loss/",  keep_article_html=True)
article.download()
article.parse()
print article.title 
print article.authors 
print article.text
print article.published_date
print article.article_html

Error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "newspaper_trial.py", line 5, in <module>
    article.parse()

This has been solved in the head version of library. I had given a pull request for the same last week which had got accepted. Try installing the head version of library referencing github and using pip.

^ True, since this is such an important bugfix i'll push it live to pip soon!
