The upstream issue is https://github.com/jcgregorio/httplib2/issues/252
tl;dr: the permissions in the .tar.gz on pypi are wrong, and these permissions are restored when pip installing as root.
Workarounds: - fix the permissions manually - install pywikibot into a virtualenv - remove the pip installed httplib2 and replace by the distribution one - use pwb.py
and maybe - install the bundled httplib2 in externals/
also works.
