--- Comment #1 from John Mark Vandenberg jayvdb@gmail.com --- What is the bug?
The catimages code is:
try: import Image # classic 'PIL' except ImportError: from PIL import Image # new 'PIL' fork 'Pillow' (fedora 19)
http://git.wikimedia.org/commit/pywikibot%2Fcompat.git/5dc246cd5f17aea47383d...
I think compat tries to automatically install every dependency, so this bug might be that PIL/Pillow needs to be added to externals/__init__.py
Or, it could provide a nice error message if it failed to find the package after two imports.
Also it isnt not documented at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot/Installation#Dependencies
