Hello,
I'm helping someone use my OpenID patch with MediaWiki, and it seems
that MediaWiki can't easily be used with things in the standard PHP
include path. These two lines in LocalSettings.php are the culprit:
$path = array( $IP, "$IP/includes", "$IP/languages" );
set_include_path( implode( PATH_SEPARATOR, $path ) );
So, if /usr/share/php is in the PHP include path, it'll get blown
away. Is MediaWiki so self-sufficient that this has never stepped on
efforts to include things in, say, PEAR? Is modifying the above code
an acceptable way to customize a given MediaWiki install if things in
/usr/share/php are needed? Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks!
