[Labs-l] Processing dumps with Wikimedia Utilities

Sun May 18 15:15:14 UTC 2014

Hi again;

I have created the virtualenv for Python3, installed mediawiki-utilities,
etc. I can launch my script in that virtualenv and works fine, but when I
do 'jsub', the destination machine obviously doesn't have that module:

from mw.xml_dump import Iterator
ImportError: No module named mw.xml_dump

How can I launch a jsub using my virtualenv?

Thanks
