Okay, makes sense. It just seemed to me that in previous upgrades I
have done, the mediawiki people complained that these problems were due
to changes made in postgresql's tsearch2 setup.

Also, a lot of the instructions do seem to be very postgres-oriented
(for example: hand editting of the pgdump output, etc), not much to do
on the mediawiki side of things. Other apps besides mediawiki seem to
have similar problems, or maybe a better word is upgrade complications.

Okay, I'll work on that.
