 Skins, such as the default skin Vector, are distributed separately. Drop them

 into this directory and enable as per the skin's installation instructions.


 You can find a list of available skins at

 <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:All_skins>,

 and more information about installing and configuring skins at

 <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Skin_configuration>.


 If you are a developer, you might want to fetch the skin tree in another

 directory and make a symbolic link:


  mediawiki/skins$ ln -s ../../skins-trunk/FooBar


 The default skin Vector can be installed by cloning from Git:

     git clone https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/diffusion/SVEC/Vector


 Other skins are also available:

     https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/diffusion/SKIN/


 Please note that under POSIX systems (Linux...), parent of a symbolic path

 refers to the link source, NOT to the target! You should check the env

 variable MW_INSTALL_PATH in case the extension is not in the default location.


 The following code snippet lets you override the default path:


  $IP = getenv( 'MW_INSTALL_PATH' );

  if( $IP === false ) {

     $IP = __DIR__ . '/../..';

  }

  require_once "$IP/maintenance/Maintenance.php"; // a MediaWiki core file

This document is intended to provide useful advice for parties seeking to redistribute MediaWiki to end users It s targeted particularly at maintainers for Linux since it s been observed that distribution packages of MediaWiki often break We ve consistently had to recommend that users seeking support use official tarballs instead of their distribution s and this often solves whatever problem the user is having It would be nice if this could such as
