Hello Juan Carlos,
There are 2 solutions to your problem:
- install a our precompiled python packages for python 2.3 (the one
shipped with OS X) and hence remove python 2.5. Download the python
packages (including pyXML) from there
http://inkscape.modevia.com/macosx-snap/?C=M;O=D (pick the one for Intel of
course). Open the dmg and drag and drop (the background image should make
things obvious).
- install pyXML manually if you need to keep python 2.5. this is really
easy and the steps involved are detailed there:
http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/CompilingMacOsX (at the bottom).

As bulia mentioned in his previous comment, pyXML will be droped in favor
of lxml soon. We'll provide precompiled versions of lxml too.

Let me know if everything does smoothly for you. Cheers,
