Well, you actually got the same error. In that situation Fle3 just
catches it and shows this error message (FLE.py, line ~350). It tries
to do the same import, but apparently it fails if the xml library is
missing.

Instructions for installing the library depend on your platform. Since
you use Debian, just say "apt-get install python2.1-xmlbase". It may
be that you've installed "python2.1-xml" which provides some
functionality, but not all. minidom seems to need the expat parser,
which comes when you install the xmlbase package.
