[Pkg-mediawiki-devel] Bug#717543: mediawiki-extensions-math: Math.php should use full <?php tag rather than short <? tag

[Nye Liu]

Package: mediawiki-extensions-math
Version: 2:1.0+git20120528-7
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

Latest apache2/php5 requires long <?php tags 

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

Math extention not loaded, even though extensions-enabled/Math.php is soft
linked to ../extensions-available/Math.php

   * What was the outcome of this action?

Math.php totally ignored, so the extension was not loaded.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

Math extension should be loaded (and show up as loaded in the Special:Version page)
