Package: mediawiki Version: 1:1.19.5-1+deb7u1 Severity: important Tags: upstream
MediaWiki always had important sorting bugs. Even in French, sorts are binary, so 'É' sorts after 'F'. See https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=164 I'm not aware of all the work done on this issue but 1.17+ is supposed to support better sorting when $wgCategoryCollation is set to uca-default. On a wheezy server, even after manually setting that, sorting is incorrect. I even got crashes ("MediaWiki does not support ICU locale "root""). The latest versions should suppot more collations, such as uca-fr. Maybe these would work. -- Filipus Klutiero http://www.philippecloutier.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
