Does anyone have a workaround for me, please, so I can run scripts now and until this is fixed?
Sure! This change should fix the problem:
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/140069/1/pywikibot/version.py,cm
If that doesnt work, in wikipedia.py, line 6021, replace
setUserAgent(USER_AGENT_FORMAT % dict( script=('-'.join(version.get_executing_script())), versionrev=(version.getversiondict()["rev"]) ))
with
setUserAgent('Pywikibot 1.0/compat bug 66687')

.. If that was addressed to me and was assuming my state of affairs as it was I reported the bug (no change in software) -- neither of which I know to be the case -- then it prints out nothing.
Yes it was. I wasnt able to reproduce this problem on Linux, so I will need your help (or that of anyone else who can reproduce this bug) to find the problem.
Thanks for doing that. That helps me find the problem. I'll come back soon with another debugging request.
