Description David Walser 2015-09-18 23:27:37 CEST
As explained here:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Sl9i17el9a1g9tv1

the LdapAuthentication plugin for MediaWiki no longer works as of PHP 5.6.11, but changing a single rtrim() function call to trim() in it is sufficient to fix it.  I have patched our package and verified that the fix does indeed work.

Advisory:
----------------------------------------

The LdapAuthentication plugin for MediaWiki was broken by the update to PHP
5.6.11. This issue has been fixed in the mediawiki-ldapauthentication package.
