Right.

I have just uploaded a new package for mediawiki1.7 (-9) that fixes a security 
issue as published in the current 1.7.3 upstream release.

Since -6 I have removed the symlink, added a README and added two deconf 
translations.

You may consider this package as an update candidate for mediawiki1.7
