[Pkg-mediawiki-devel] Bug#743165: mediawiki lacks directory include/libs on wheezy

[Patrice LE GURUN (PatLeNain)]

Package: mediawiki
Version: 1:1.19.14+dfsg-0+deb7u1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

The last update of mediawiki from security show an empty page.
After investigations, the directory includes/libs is missing, making the package unusable.
In the debian/rules, this directory is remove with the comments :
   # includes/libs is provided by mediawiki-classes
Note that the mediawiki-classes package is not available in wheezy.

Commenting the next line and rebuild the package correct the problem.

Regards,

Patrice
