+Interesting. To allow multiple wikis with same code, it can be done
+in the config file, after setting some variable in the vhost config, the
+config file use this variable to decide which config to load.
+
+However the config file is usually created by mediawiki itself, by the
+install steps in mediawiki, when the database is created. If the config
+file is already there, the database will not be created by mediawiki.
+I don't know how it can be done automatically during package install.
+I will look at fedora package how they do this.

+</I>
+Yes. However, it should not prevent using the package with something
+else than apache, or with different settings.
+
+Maybe this config can be done by a subpackage ?
+

+</I>
+Yes, it looks like a good plan. I'm interested in co-maintaining, as we
+plan to use this package to host the mageia wiki.
