Thanks aside, it is such a PITA when developers choose to package tarballs the way you have. After opening tens of thousands of tarballs I can safely say that the "standard" way of doing it is to have a directory called ezmwlucene_1.0 inside ezmwlucene_1.0.tar. This means that you plop ezmwlucene_1.0.tar in mediawiki/extensions and then you untar it and your done.
What you have chosen to do is totally bizarre. If I do the standard thing I get client and server directories inside my extension directory and the client directory contains extensions/EzMwLucene. This is not exactly the "easy to install" solution I was imagining. On Thu, May 7, 2009 at 2:37 PM, Brian <[email protected]> wrote: > Thank you so much~!
