  I'm using a fresh Ubuntu 17.10 and I cannot import libxml2 using
  Python3.

  Python 3.6.3 (default, Oct  3 2017, 21:45:48)
  [GCC 7.2.0] on linux
  Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
  >>> import libxml2
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/libxml2.py", line 1, in <module>
      import libxml2mod
  ImportError: /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/libxml2mod.cpython-36m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so: undefined symbol: _PyVerify_fd
  >>> quit()
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)
