Bug Description

I am using Ubuntu 17.10. Currently that comes with PHP7.1.
However, DokuWiki only became compatible with PHP7.1 since version 2017-02-19e “Frusterick Manners”. Currently Ubuntu 17.10 only ships with Release 2016-06-26a “Elenor of Tsort”.

Using the old version results in DokuWiki producing PHP Fatal Errors in the CSS.php part. Thus all pages are malformed.

I installed dokuwiki_0.0.20160626.a-2.1_all.deb manually (from the cosmic repo) to get it working. There is an important bug fix in that version that hasn't yet been released to bionic.
