As you say its relatively easy to guess if the admin has added extra wikis. The problem is what would you like the package to do once its discovered that you have additional wikis installed side by side? I can't think of any sensible course of action that would allow the package to upgrade arbitrary instances of PHPwiki that have not ever been managed by the package. There are simply too many possible configurations to deal with. Maybe once the package moves to dbconfig-common it might be possible to provide a registration method to allow the administrator to register additional PHPwiki databases with the package which would then take care of upgrading them as new versions are released. I very much doubt that's doable before etch however... Suggestions welcome :) -- Matt Brown [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mob +64 21 611 544 www.mattb.net.nz
