Description

When trying to move categories on cs.wiki with

Pywikibot: [https] r-pywikibot-core.git (0222b40, g5955, 2015/07/10, 23:49:18, ok)
Release version: 2.0b3

I get stuck at "Retrieving 50 pages from wikipedia:cs." I dont get any error messages even with -verbose parameter given. The command just does not procede and I have no idea why.
