Title:
  c2c_currency_rate_update outdated XML lib and a crash

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I am currently testing the module "c2c_currency_rate_update" from
  extra-addons, stable branch. I am using the current stable branch for
  server and addons.

  The great news is that I managed to update several currencies with the
  service "Yahoo Finance" !

  But it seems I found 2 issues with the module. I am a beginner in
  Python, so I may be wrong or say stupid things, please take it into
  account when reading this.

  1) First issue : deprecated pyxml lib makes ECB and Admin.ch service
  unusable ?

  In the file currency_rate_update.py, for the service ECB (European
  Central Bank) and Admin.ch, there is an import of a library :

  from xml import xpath

  (line 365 for Admin.ch and 417 for ECB)

  For what I understand, this lib is part of the pyXML lib, available from this project : http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyxml/
  Under Ubuntu, the lib was provided by the package python-xml. Since Karmic, this lib is no longer provided, see http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=python-xml&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all
  Probably, the reason for that is written on http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyxml/ :

  PyXML is no longer maintained.

  So, shouldn't we use another XML lib ? If yes, which one do you
  suggest ?

  2) if I start the server with --log-level=debug, when I do anything in
  the "Currency autoupdate configuration" (under Administration > Users
  > Companies) and save it, or when I click on Refresh currencies, or
  when the scheduled action to refresh currencies is executed, I get the
  following crash in the logs :

  [2010-09-22 16:12:38,161][erp_des4] DEBUG:sql:bad query: select company_id from res_currency
  [2010-09-22 16:12:38,162][erp_des4] DEBUG:sql:None

  I confirm there is no company_id field on the res_currency object !

  Do you confirm these two issues ? If yes, I am willing to spend time to try to fix them, but :
  - for point n°1, I need some advice on which python XML lib we should use now
  - for point n°2, I will probably need some help, because I don't see what triggers this bad SQL query...
