Restricted Application added subscribers: pywikibot-bugs-list, Aklapper.
TASK DESCRIPTION
**Steps to replicate the issue** (include links if applicable):
- Install pywikibot through pip through a virtualenv. Importantly, **do not
install a wikitext parser like mwparserfromhell**
- Run this script:
try:
import pywikibot
except Exception:
import os
os.system('pip install mwparserfromhell')
import pywikibot
site = pywikibot.Site('wikidata', 'wikidata')
**What happens?**:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/private/tmp/tmp.py", line 7, in <module>
site = pywikibot.Site('wikidata', 'wikidata')

AttributeError: module 'pywikibot' has no attribute 'family'. Did you mean:
'Family'?
CRITICAL: Exiting due to uncaught exception <class 'AttributeError'>
**What should have happened instead?**: It shouldn't fail. In fact, running
that script again will make it work.
**Software version** (skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia):
