# yum install mediawiki

Is this ok [y/N]: n

The current mediawiki package includes a Requires: tetex-latex, tetex-dvips, which I assume from the inclusion of the math plugin. I have no use for this in my wiki setup, and for a "slim" install I'd like to not install 100 megs of fluff. Right now I'm using the upstream tarball for my wiki. I'd rather use the Fedora RPM.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.13.2


Additional info: Ubuntu ships the math component in a separate deb package[1] already if you would like a supporting usage case.
