All these symlinks are added by the package. You can download an upstream version from www.mediawiki.org to get the files in a single folder. >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Platonides [mailto:Platonides [1] [at] gmail] >> Sent: Wednesday, January 19, 2011 10:29 PM >> To: mediawiki-l [at] lists >> Subject: Re: [Mediawiki-l] DADDIO skin >> >> The skin is in our SVN, look at >> > http://SVN.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/skins/DADDIO/ >> [2] >> >> You can download it with the command: >> SVN CO >> > http://SVN.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/skins/DADDIO/ >> [3] Being into svn is different than being into the release tarball. You would do: cd extensions mkdir skins cd skins svn co http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/skins/Daddio/ Add to localsettings the line include "$IP/extensions/skins/Daddio/Daddio.php": (the above way is extensible to other extensions) For using the command svn you will need to have the subversion package installed. > The User "platonides" said: >> You can use >> http://www.mediawiki.org/WIKI/Special:ExtensionDistributor/skins [4] >> to download several skins (including DADDIO) in a package. >> >> It's not perfect, since they should be offered separatedly, and the >> instructions to extract into extensions folder is also wrong (those >> are >> prepared for dropping into skins folder). > > When I copy the skin to "/usr/share/mediawiki/skins" and edit the File > /etc/mediawiki/LocaleSettings.php > the new theme the monobook is displayed and not daddio :( Dadio skin seems to expect itself being installed in extensions/skin/Daddio.
