We have to update them manually, and compared to the other things we have to do, we never got around to it. That's one of the problems with software that works fine :-)

Maybe you should convince CentOS to provide a mediawiki package easy to update :) (disclaimer: I don't know if/how CentOS currently packages mediawiki)

Earlier, I told Platonides that I would look at the RPMs from Fedora/CentOS/RHEL for MediaWiki in an effort to work more closely with them. The Fedora team has already contacted us about some copyright concerns, so we have a start.

Platonides has already done a lot of work with the Debian community, and I'll be working from his comments Debian's MediaWiki packages so we can get some sort of synchronization between packages.

I'll try to report back tonight with what I find.

Mark.
