+ >>> import subprocess
+ >>> cmd = "pkg-config --modversion libxml-2.0"
+ >>> p = subprocess.Popen(cmd, shell=True,stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
+ >>> stdout_data, errors = p.communicate()
+ >>> print(stdout_data)
+ b'2.9.12\n'
+ >>> print(errors)
+ b'do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Unable to send; errno = Network is unreachable\n'
