Well, that's a trigger that's updating a column called "textvector" of
type tsvector (a tsearch2 type). It's not a tsearch2 trigger function
though, so presumably it comes with mediawiki.
Try just adding the column, I'm guessing it was dropped while you were
taking out the old tsearch2 installation.
ALTER TABLE pagecontent ADD COLUMN textvector tsvector;
Incidentally, I tend to install tsearch2 in its own schema now, makes it
simpler to check what's installed. It does mean you need to do alter
your search_path though.
Oh, and 8.3 will have tsearch as a built-in.
