Stephen, 1. The two patches are for hard-coding defaults. We shouldn't be in the business of doing this. I've dropped the two patches in my 1.19 build. 2. The upgrade mode is executed for the user when they upgrade by a post-install scriptlet. In any case the upgrade procedure is no different from an upgrade in PostgreSQL or any other app that requires user-interaction on upgrades. This is no reason to keep mediawiki at 1.16. I don't see any reason to keep mediawiki at 1.16 other than a NRM. If any FESCo member wants to orphan the package I'll push the update ASAP. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
