This is somewhat intentional as the new package only contains some of those packages (those that are shipped by upstream as part of the tarball), while the mediawiki-extensions-base package was a somewhat arbitrary list of extensions. > So, it seems to me you package should "Provides" these three packages, > in order to play well with mediawiki-extensions.

I'll leave finding the best solution to your care. The package already has provides for those three packages (base, geshi, and confirmedit), but I think it will still need to break mediawiki-extensions since none of the extensions in that package are compatible with the newer version and not all of them are provided by the new package. I also have no plans on updating the mediawiki-extensions-* packages. So I'm not sure really what other steps can be taken... -- Kunal
