DetailsThe most recent upgrade to pcre 8.34-1 seems to disallow group names
starting with a digit. A quote from the PCRE news.txt [1]: > "Perl no longer allows group names to start with digits, so I have made this change also in PCRE." I found this bug report[2] on the mediawiki site that apparently has a working patch though it hasn't been added to a mediawiki update yet. This breaks my MediaWiki install with the following error in the httpd/error.log: >PHP Warning: preg_match(): Compilation failed: group name must start with a non-digit at offset 8 in /usr/share/webapps/mediawiki/includes/MagicWord.php on line 907 There is not content shown in the pages of my wiki though a look at the page history/database shows it is all still in the DB. Let me know if I can get any other info for this. [1] http://pcre.org/news.txt [2] https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58640 |

Also, I think
FS#38323is related.
