Where does it say it's unsupported? Some older page, talking about the distro version? I routinely use MW from tarball on Ubuntu and it's fine. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Debian/Ubuntu
I'd personally recommend you install the prerequisites then use the MediaWiki tarball, but the distro 1.19 in recent versions of Ubuntu should be good (if a bit old).
I have done MW on Solaris and it was an exercise in pain, unless you use something that resolves dependencies for you. That is to say, a Linux.

Solaris is an option also.
