Description of problem: mediawiki 1.21 includes extensions 'Interwiki' as a core extension, which is the same as the functionality provided by 'mediawiki-SpecialInterwiki'. If mediawiki-SpecialInterwiki is installed, the mediawiki installer breaks if both are selected (I havent tested if it breaks if only one is installed Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.21.x How reproducible: Very Steps to Reproduce: 1. install package mediawiki-SpecialInterwiki 2. install package mediawiki 3. configure mediawiki application using web installer 4. select both extensions Interwiki & SpecialInterwiki Actual results: Installation process says 'Including extensions...' and stops. Expected results: installing package mediawiki Or, the installer should detect this problem and not offer 'SpecialInterwiki', as mediawiki knows that it has included it in core.
This is of course fixed by adding something like Provides: mediawiki-SpecialInterwiki = 0.11.20080913svn.2 Obsoletes: mediawiki-SpecialInterwiki <= 0.11.20080913svn.1
The package maintainer(s) for mediawiki-SpecialInterwiki needs to retire his package as well.
Will do - still need it in EPEL I think, though.
Please note this has not yet been performed, could you still do this please? Also, please note that the mediawiki package in EPEL-6 has been deprecated, and EPEL-5 is also unmaintained (trying to get that deprecated), so I think it should be okay to deprecated/deadpackage it from there as well.
This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
This has still not been done.
