malformed start tag error - Python, BeautifulSoup, and Sipie - Ubuntu 10.04

I just installed python, mplayer, beautifulsoup and sipie to run Sirius on my Ubuntu 10.04 machine. I followed some docs that seem straightforward, but am encountering some issues. I'm not that familiar with Python, so this may be out of my league.



I was able to get everything installed, but then running sipie gives this:



/usr/bin/Sipie/Sipie/Config.py:12: DeprecationWarning: the md5 module is deprecated; use hashlib instead import md5

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/Sipie/sipie.py", line 22, in <module>
Sipie.cliPlayer()


File "/usr/bin/Sipie/Sipie/cliPlayer.py", line 74, in cliPlayer
completer = Completer(sipie.getStreams())


File "/usr/bin/Sipie/Sipie/Factory.py", line 374, in getStreams
streams = self.tryGetStreams()


File "/usr/bin/Sipie/Sipie/Factory.py", line 298, in tryGetStreams
soup = BeautifulSoup(data)


File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/BeautifulSoup-3.1.0.1-py2.6.egg/BeautifulSoup.py", line 1499, in __init__

File "/usr/lib/python2.6/HTMLParser.py", line 108, in feed
self.goahead(0)


File "/usr/lib/python2.6/HTMLParser.py", line 148, in goahead
k = self.parse_starttag(i)


File "/usr/lib/python2.6/HTMLParser.py", line 226, in parse_starttag
endpos = self.check_for_whole_start_tag(i)


File "/usr/lib/python2.6/HTMLParser.py", line 301, in check_for_whole_start_tag
self.error("malformed start tag")


File "/usr/lib/python2.6/HTMLParser.py", line 115, in error
raise HTMLParseError(message, self.getpos())


HTMLParser.HTMLParseError: malformed start tag, at line 100, column 3



I looked through these files and the line numbers, but since I am unfamiliar with Python, it doesn't make much sense. Any advice on what to do next?
