[Pkg-mediawiki-devel] Bug#530319: debsums: can't open mediawiki ...

[Kingsley G. Morse Jr.]

Package: mediawiki
Version: 1:1.14.0-1
Severity: normal


Thanks for maintaining debian's mediawiki package.

It seems to me to be important.

The main reason I'm writing is that I happened to
notice that the "reportbug" application complains
when asked to report a bug in mediawiki.

Here's what I'm seeing. The problem starts 13
lines down...

    $ reportbug
    Please enter the name of the package in which you have found a problem, or type
    'other' to report a more general problem.

    There may be a problem with your installation of mediawiki;
    the following files appear to be missing or changed:

    debsums: can't open mediawiki file var/lib/mediawiki/config/index.php (Permission denied)
    Do you still want to file a report [y|N|q|?]?

Thanks,
Kingsley
