Package: mediawiki Version: 1:1.15.1-1 Severity: normal Mediawiki right now become unsuable after upgrading (files are updated, database no).
Current SQL update process requied to make by hand AdminSettings.php file in /etc/mediawiki with sql sysop account data (including password) and run /usr/share/mediawiki/maintenance/update.php But debian package system have it own password for database maintenance (debian-sys-maint). I think, updating script shall be runned by dpkg during updates, not by hands. F.e., I someone have rights to do `sudo aptitude update` and have no any other rights (like SQL superuser or rights to write to /etc) we got situation of failed update (real root needed). Even if user will have right to write /etc, there is a big risk to open AdminSettings.php with plaintext password to other users. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.4 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages mediawiki depends on: ii apache2 2.2.9-10+lenny6 Apache HTTP Server metapackage ii apache2-mpm-prefor 2.2.9-10+lenny6 Apache HTTP Server - traditional n ii debconf [debconf-2 1.5.24 Debian configuration management sy ii mime-support 3.44-1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap ii php5 5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny4 server-side, HTML-embedded scripti ii php5-mysql 5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny4 MySQL module for php5 Versions of packages mediawiki recommends: ii mysql-server 5.0.51a-24+lenny3 MySQL database server (metapackage ii mysql-server-5.0 [ 5.0.51a-24+lenny3 MySQL database server binaries ii php5-cli 5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny4 command-line interpreter for the p Versions of packages mediawiki suggests: pn clamav <none> (no description available) ii imagemagick 7:6.3.7.9.dfsg2-1~lenny3 image manipulation programs pn mediawiki-math <none> (no description available) pn memcached <none> (no description available) ii php5-gd 5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny4 GD module for php5 -- debconf information: mediawiki/webserver: apache2 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
