My email to the list about this http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/pywikipedia-l/2014-June/008778.html

I suggested that we don't specify mwparserfromhell as a dependency for Windows users as a temporary solution.

Comment 5 John Mark Vandenberg 2014-07-21 09:41:17 UTC
Installing mwparserfromhell using pip2.7 works for me on 32 bit Windows, with and without its C parser enabled.

The pip installation looked nothing like https://github.com/earwig/mwparserfromhell/issues/68 (it doesnt try to compile anything), so I presume that they have rebuild/redistributed mwparserfromhell 0.3.3 with the dll due to the changes/recommendations by valhallasw.

It looks like this issue is solved, and when mwparserfromhell 0.4 is released we should re-add the dependency for MS Windows.
