Bug#217571: Preview package
I took some time, but I did a small test of Romain's preview package.
Here are my comments.
At installation, the choice of Web servers to configure is not clear.
"both-apache" seems to make sense (apache and apache-ssl), but I don't
see how "both-apache2" does.
After installation, there's a /usr/share/mediawiki/LocalSettings.php
symlink that points to a non-existing /etc/mediawiki/LocalSettings.php
After configuration, /var/lib/mediawiki/config/LocalSettings.php is
created *666*, and contains DB password(s).
MediaWiki instructs :
"Success! Move the config/LocalSettings.php file into the parent
directory, then follow this link <http://localhost/mediawiki/index.php>
to your wiki."
It was not trivial for me to figure out that this referred to
/var/lib/mediawiki/config/LocalSettings.php
After the move was done, MediaWiki appeared to be running fine. It's
great to see real progress on that RFP ;)
