The main issue is exec() and friends in safe mode. As pointed out in comment #2, it's patently broken in these setups. If there are enhancements we can make to help safe mode users that don't create issues for the rest of us then they should be incorporated into wfShellExec() rather than unconditionally failing like we currently do. However, that's outside the scope of this bug (on a tangent, anything not using wfShellExec() should be) and is a WONTFIX as far as I'm concerned. The second issue here is that when we're looking for diff3, we're expecting some rather specific output from --version (which is still true with the new installer merged to trunk). The original report obviously has a working diff3, we just don't allow it because its version output isn't matching. This should certainly be fixed and I'm repurposing the bug to concentrate on that. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
