likly upgrade process is not completed. You can help us debugging your
problem if you
a) join #moin on chat.freenode.net see http://moinmo.in/MoinMoinChat
b) provide more than these two lines. e.g. how does your
page_group_regex looks like (the syntax has changed see
http://hg.moinmo.in/moin/1.7/file/f8871116c6b3/docs/CHANGES#l267)
c) by more details how you have migrated your wiki data? Did you removed
cache files afterwards etc.

gui editor was removed by debian. It usually runs with python 2.5.2.

This is extremly old, if you want a reason to upgrade again see

A newer debian moin version is in testing.
