Package: aswiki Version: 1.0.4-5 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Hi,
aswiki is broken. When running it as a CGI script, the following
exception is shown:
wrong number of arguments (1 for 0)
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/aswiki/handler.rb:229:in `initialize'
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/aswiki/handler.rb:229:in `new'
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/aswiki/handler.rb:229:in `makeeditpage'
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/aswiki/handler.rb:257:in `initialize'
/home/schm/public_html/aswiki/aswiki.cgi:48:in `new'
/home/schm/public_html/aswiki/aswiki.cgi:48
This is apparently caused by aswiki relying on Digest::MD5.new accepting
an argument containing the text to digest, which it does not. After
fixing this problem by monkey-patching Digest::MD5, aswiki reacted with
IndexPage
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/aswiki/backup.rb:40:in `ci'
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/aswiki/repository.rb:31:in `save'
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/aswiki/handler.rb:155:in `initialize'
/home/schm/public_html/aswiki/aswiki.cgi:50:in `new'
/home/schm/public_html/aswiki/aswiki.cgi:50
on saving a page, which was when I gave up.
As aswiki has a low popcon store and is seemingly unmaintained upstream,
removing it might be the easiest solution.
