How to install on Win32
WARNING : These explanations are obsolete, nothing works.

NOTES:
 * 1) Download the DjVuLibre software (which includes djvudump.exe and ddjvu.exe files).
 * 2) Install in "C:\DjVuLibre" (for example).
 * 3) Download the NetPbm complete package (which includes pnmtojpeg.exe, pnmtopng.exe, ... files).
 * 4) Install in "C:\GnuWin32\NetPbm"
 * 5) Add "C:\GnuWin32\NetPbm\bin" to the Windows PATH Environment Variable (and reboot the computer).
 * 6) Finally, add (or modify) the code lines below in the LocalSettings.php file (not in the DefaultSettings.php):
 * 7) * $wgFileExtensions[] = 'djvu';
 * 8) * $wgDjvuDump = 'C:/DjVuLibre/djvudump.exe';
 * 9) * $wgDjvuRenderer = 'C:/DjVuLibre/ddjvu.exe';

 * don't use long paths in the $wgDjvuPostProcessor variable: it returns an Error creating thumbnail when 'C:' or '../' are written in the path.
 * PHP needs memory to create thumbnails: this means a high memory_limit (~ 128MB) in the php.ini.
