I'm in the process of upgrading our wiki from MoinMoin 1.5.8 to 1.7.1.
The wiki actually goes back to MoinMoin 1.3 days, so has been upgraded
once before. I have noticed a fair amount of cruft in data/pages, for
example:
* "system" pages that are now in underlay:
HelpOnInstalling(2f)ApacheOnUnix
HelpOnInstalling(2f)ApacheWithFastCgi
PageAccueil
PageAl(c3a9)atoire
[...]
* empty page directories -- I'm guessing some old version of MoinMoin
had a bug that created a page as soon as someone asked for it,
resulting in page dirs like this:
$ ls -1d d*
dfsqd
dkckc
* many apparent page dirs have no "current" file or "revisions"
directory:
$ find . -maxdepth 1 -type d | wc -l
3134
$ find . -maxdepth 2 -name revisions | wc -l
2989
* several pages have a "current" file that refers to a non-existent
revision (one later than the latest revisions in revisions/). These
pages render as non-existent both under 1.5.8 pre-upgrade and 1.7.1
with my test upgrade.
I am assuming that such pages once had useful content and should be
resurrected. Editing "current" to point to the latest actual
revision did not work. Any clue what might?
Two questions:
1) is it safe to just "rm -rf" those unwanted/empty page directories?
2) is there a tool to find them for me? (I can cobble something
together myself easily enough, but if it already exists, I'll
happily use it)
Thanks --
Greg
