I installed pypdflib by following the instructions given on Github : https://github.com/santhoshtr/pypdflib

1.git clone http://github.com/santhoshtr/pypdflib.git

2.python setup.py build

3.sudo python setup.py install

I think the problem may be due to wiki2pdf module in silpa/src/silpa/module/render directory. I read on wiki2pdf's official page : http://wiki.auf-trag.de/ that it is discontinued.

Are you sure all dependencies of pypdflib and silpa are installed? Your
log says guess language failed but trace back shows pypdflib. These 2l
modules are unrelated!.

That is weird. How did you install pypdflib? Did you do pip install? Did
you install it in virtual env? pypi module is outdated so please get the
source from github and install like below

python setup.py sdist
pip install dists/pypdflibxxx.tar.gz

Please re read the README check Dependencies section and re-check if you
have all the required library.

OS has no role here
