[Moin-user] Problems after Debian upgrade

MoinMoin, :)

For every python upgrade, you need to run moin --config-dir=...
--wiki-url=http://... maint cleancache for each of your wikis.

Run the command using the same user as the moin process owner.

python went from 2.6 to 2.7.

> - mod_python/3.3.1

BTW, you never should load mod_wsgi (needed by moin) and mod_python
(needed by what?) at the same time.

In fact, you should not use mod_python at all any more. It's dead and
smells strangely since quite a while.

For that part, see the other reponse on this list.

You could use another user/group here, then you have moin stuff
separated from other apache stuff. Using moin.moin is even worth it just
for the lols. :D
