Hello Romain,

Btw: Do you know whether upgrading from 1.4 directly to 1.7 works better?

I'd suggest to update the documenation earlier, because it e.g. ignores the 
fact that /var/lib/mediawiki1.5/LocalSettings.php and 
/var/lib/mediawiki1.5/AdminSettings.php are symlinks into /etc/mediawiki1.5 
right after installing the package.

I guess you mean /var/lib/mediawiki1.5, right?

Of course, that raises the question why a (plain fresh installed) mediawiki1.5 
is looking for /usr/share/mediawiki1.5/LocalSettings.php in the first place.

Using a symlink from /usr/share/mediawiki1.5/LocalSettings.php to 
/var/lib/mediawiki1.5/LocalSettings.php in fact changed the result. On trying 
to access the wiki instead of the usual front-page I get the error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: wfgetmaincache() in 
/usr/share/mediawiki1.5/includes/Setup.php on line 109

Btw: /var/lib/mediawiki1.5/LocalSettings.php is not modified compared to 
/etc/mediawiki/LocalSettings.php
