Code review comment for lp:~jtatum/mago/pidgin-exception

Hello,

I'm not sure I agree on this change. I would say that the correct way to solve this issue is at the package level, that is, adding those packages as dependencies to mago.

In my opinion, catching ImportError exception should be done if there's an alternative library that could do the same job (for example some xml libraries implement the same ElementTree interface) so the problem can be solved at runtime. If the problem isn't really solved, then the exception should be raised as soon as possible to be able to locate the problem and fix it.

Please let me know what do you think about this.

Best regards,
    Javier
