Description

I tried to get moin-1.7 on an USB stick which was fresh formatted with FAT32 and failed.

When extracting the underlay.tar, tar fails because of invalid characters (? and *) in some filename or problems with duplicates caused by FAT being case-insensitive.

The task is to fix the page names. First work on a mapping "old to new" pagenames, then edit MoinMaster (see EditingOnMoinMaster), then request a new tar file from ThomasWaldmann and try again. Provide log files or screenshots before/after your work.

For some cases, you will have to communicate with the translators of different languages and have them agree on non-colliding page names (or, in case they are not available, with other people speaking those languages). Some group pages and maybe some PO files on moinmaster might also need fixing. Linkage to the renamed pages on other pages might also need fixing.

This task needs 10 hours of work and should be completed in 10 days.

Workaround

Discussion

Obiviously we have some pages that have the same name, when treated case-insensitively. Moin is case-sensitive, this is no bug, but we can easily avoid that problem by not having system and help pages that have "colliding" names.

I have fixed this bug (GHOP issue #54). Feel free to reopen if there is a new collision. -- ErnestasLiubarskij
