I retested the upgrade issue on a vm-clone of my box and there I saw 
that the debian installer removed the file /etc/sympa/facilities and it 
seems that sympa can't work.

After copying the file from another machine sympa works for me again.

The upgrade also removes the /etc/sympa/apache* files and the symlink 
from /etc/apache/conf.d/sympa to /etc/sympa/apache which were quite easy 
to fix.

Sympa 6.1.23~dfsg-2~bpo70+1 works now for me on wheezy. I hope that this 
can help someone else as well.

thanks
Philipp
