[Pkg-mediawiki-devel] Bug#497042: mediawiki: populateCategory.php script fails with PostgreSQL

[Jaume Sabater]

Package: mediawiki
Version: 1:1.13.0-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


Using PostgreSQL 8.3.3 and Mediawiki 1.13. Upgraded from Mediawiki 1.12
to 1.13. Had to execute the populateCategory.php script inside
maintenance due to the changes made by upstream in the software, so that
new category and categorylinks tables are populated.

When doing so, it fails and leaves the pages plenty of corrupted
information, displaying tons of links/pages that should not be there.
Please note the segmentation fault at the end. The update.php executed
before also ended in a segmentation fault error, but seemed to work
fine.

These are the errors that the script return when executing from the
console:
