Package: mediawiki
Version: 1:1.27.1-2~bpo8+1
Severity: important
Quack,
If you try to upgrade to the bpo version and you already add
mediawiki-extensions installed, the later is to be uninstalled. I
understand that the new mediawiki package replaces (and in fact
provides) the content of mediawiki-extensions-base now, same for
mediawiki-extensions-confirmedit and mediawiki-extensions-geshi, but
mediawiki-extensions dragged more packages which are then removed as
well.
So, it seems to me you package should "Provides" these three packages,
in order to play well with mediawiki-extensions. The exact upgrade path
needs to be tested. Or you could package a new version of
mediawiki-extensions without them and change the minimum requirement in
mediawiki. I'll leave finding the best solution to your care.
Regards.
