Initial Comment: Pywikipedia trunk/pywikipedia/ (r9826, 2011/10/30, 15:03:29) Python 2.7.2 (default, Jun 12 2011, 14:24:46) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] config-settings: use_api = True use_api_login = True unicode test: ok

I found some categories removed on template which are not affected by the command line:

category.py remove -from:Kategorie:Vorlage:mit_Einzelnachweisen

Here is a sample: http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Vorlage%3AInfobox_Gemeindeverband_...

Message: I changed the behavour of catlib.change_category(). Categories of templates always are always replaced by wikipedia.replaceCategoryInPlace() rather than by wikipedia.replaceCategoryLinks().

The bug ist still remainig for some circumstances: Page.categories() gives categories via api whereas replaceCategoryLinks() works like wikipedia.getCategoryLinks() which is quite different.
