parser.cxx about xlnt

[doomlaur]

While you did not provide many details about the exact error message, my guess is that you have issues with the XML parser used by XLNT, libstudxml. This external library has been included in the XLNT repository as a Git Submodule.

In other words, in order to clone XLNT together with libstudxml you need to do one of the following:

1. Either clone XLNT using git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/tfussell/xlnt.git
2. Or clone as usual and (especially useful if you already cloned the repository), go to third-party/libstudxml and call: git submodule update --init
3. Or, if you want this to happen automatically in the future, set git config --global submodule.recurse true in your global Git settings (or, alternatively, without --global to only do it in the current repository).
