Not likely. A compilation error that allowed the compilation to run to completion would be very rare indeed. And conversely, a compilation warning that prevented Sigil from launching would be almost as rare.

I need something confirmed first. On both of the error messages you mentioned:
Quote:
1. Embedded Python Error
2. error in xmlprocessor repairXML: -2
There should be a Show Details button that will contain more info about the error. Could you copy and paste that info here?

For what it's worth, it seems as if your system Python 3.5.2 installation just can't find the lxml module (the Show Details info from above will hopefully confirm this). It's possible you've confused the installation of the lxml module for Python 3 with Python 2. To verify:

Launch an interactive Python 3 session by typing "python3" at a command prompt. Then at the >>> cursor, type "import six" (no quotes, followed by the enter key) and "import lxml" (no quotes, followed by the enter key).

If either of those result in an Import error, your Python 3 environment is incomplete (for running Sigil).

Exit the interactive Python session by typing exit().
