I'm trying to upgrade from Mediawiki 1.38 to Mediawiki 1.39 on Ubuntu
20.04 LTS, x96_64, LTS. Ubuntu 20 provides Composer 1.
When I run 'composer install --verbose --no-dev' I get this error:
<BEGIN>
Problem 1
- Installation request for doctrine/dbal 3.4.2 -> satisfiable by
doctrine/dbal[3.4.2].
- doctrine/dbal 3.4.2 requires composer-runtime-api ^2 -> no
matching package found.
Potential causes:
- A typo in the package name
- The package is not available in a stable-enough version according
to your minimum-stability setting
see <https://getcomposer.org/doc/04-schema.md#minimum-stability>
for more details.
- It's a private package and you forgot to add a custom repository to find it
</END>
I want to remove whatever is using doctrine/dbal.
How do I determine which Mediawiki component is using doctrine/dbal?
Thanks in advance.
As per the MediaWiki version lifecycle[1], I would like to announce the
formal end of life (EOL) of MediaWiki 1.38 as of today, Friday June 30,
2023.
1.38.7 is expected to be the last release for this branch.
This means that MediaWiki 1.38 will no longer receive maintenance or
security backports. It is therefore strongly discouraged that you continue
to use it.
It is recommended to upgrade either to MediaWiki 1.39 (LTS), which will be
supported until November 2025 or to 1.40 (released today), which will be
supported until June 2024.
Thanks!

Hi all,
On Friday we will be issuing a security and maintenance release to all
supported branches of MediaWiki.
The new releases will be:
- 1.35.11
- 1.38.7
- 1.39.4
This will resolve three minor security issues in MediaWiki core, along with
bug fixes included for maintenance reasons. This includes various patches
for PHP 8.0, PHP 8.1 and PHP 8.2 support.
Due to the low severity of two of the patches, they already exist in the
respective release branches in git.
We will make the fixes available in the respective release branches (plus
1.40 which will also be released tomorrow) and master in git. Tarballs will
be available for the above mentioned point releases as well.
A summary of some of the security fixes that have gone into non-bundled
MediaWiki extensions will also follow later.
As a reminder, 1.38 becomes end of life (EOL) tomorrow, June 30, 2023.
1.38.7 is therefore expected to be the last release for this branch. It is
recommended to upgrade to 1.39 (the next LTS after 1.35), which will be
supported until November 2025, or the newly released 1.40, which will be
supported until June 2024.

Does anyone have an opinion on the hidden categories list that's shown
below the editing form?
We're wondering if it should be deleted, because its contents is
duplicated in the main categories box further down the page (if you have
the showhiddencats preference enabled, and if you do not you perhaps
don't want to see hidden categories).
