Hey Sk!d,

I think this is related to our source switch for httplib2 (from a github
clone to our own gerrit repo).
I can think of two things to try;
1) check .git/config to see if externals/httplib2 correctly has
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/pywikibot/externals/httplib2.git as URL
git submodule sync should do that for you (why doesn't update --init also
do that for you? Silly git)

2) the less subtle way: remove the submodule entries from .git/config,
remove the directories under .git/modules and under externals/httplib2 and
scripts/i18n.

Sorry for the inconvenience - but at least we're not going to switch
repositories again ;-)
