Next stage. It becomes more and more horroristic.

I downloaded the latest "compat" from  nightlies and unpacked.

It is one third in size than that of 11 January.

After unpacking version.py says:
c:\Pywikipedia>version.py
syntax error: line 1, column 0
Serious import error; pywikibot not available - was it configured?
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Pywikipedia\version.py", line 20, in <module>
    pywikibot.output('Pywikibot: %s' % getversion())
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'output'

version.py may have perhaps misunderstood something, I didn't want to configure anything, i just wanted to update my WORKING copy.

Then I tried to restore the previous version but the result is the same, my Pywikibot does not work any more. I had a working version and tried to update it in a normal way before somebody cleverly asks me to do so, and I only have broken ruins.

I am totally fed up with this whole mess!

Give us back Pywikibot!
