user_properties. Why wasn't a conversion script run here?
In theory if all properties are at defaults, user shouldn't be there. The
actual check should be against the blob field.

Hoi,
The big problem with upgrading MediaWiki is the upgrading of extensions. It
is not documented anywhere if extensions will work with a specific release
of MediaWiki. Being able to install extensions is a great thing when you
know upfront that the extensions you are interested in will actually

If Debian doesn't feel they should keep supported versions in their

That is, seriously, an absurd attitude for a Mediawiki Developer to
