Package: mediawiki1.7
Version: 1.7.1-3
Severity: normal
This is actually a bug in mediawiki1.5, but it persists in 1.7 (at least in its
documentation).
In README.Debian.gz, the upgrade from 1.4 to 1.5, step 4 - 6. We are instructed
to copy
LocalSettings.php to /var/lib/mediawiki1.5. Due to a preexisting symlink this
file ends up
in /etc/mediawiki1.5. When executing maintenance/update.php, it does not find
LocalSettings.php:
debian:/var/lib/mediawiki1.5# php maintenance/update.php
A copy of your installation's LocalSettings.php
must exist in the source directory.
This is because
debian:/var/lib/mediawiki1.5# ls -l maintenance
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 35 2006-10-31 16:24 maintenance ->
/usr/share/mediawiki1.5/maintenance
and therefore update.php looks for LocalSettings.php in
/usr/share/mediawiki1.5, not
/var/lib/mediawiki1.5.
After copying to /var/lib/mediawiki1.5, I get the same error as I reported
before, that
Setup.php cannot be found, because the include path is /var/lib/mediawiki/*
etc. This
should at least be /var/lib/mediawiki1.5, but propably even
/usr/share/mediawiki1.5.
There seems to be a solid confusion about directory names, at least on my
system.
Best regards,
Bastiaan.

Hi !
As I can read, your bug was because of an incorrect upgrade path..
As you say it worked later on..
Hence, closing.
