So mw-config can't be deleted after all? Or you mean the installer at includes/installer? Is you mean the former, then how about "run-installer" instead of my previous proposal of "first-run"? Any of these would be clearer than "mw-config", imo.

You can delete it, but then you can't use it to upgrade the wiki (or rather, you would need to copy it again from the new tree).
mw-config only updates the databse to the currently installed version of
MW. So it's fine to delete mw-config because you won't need that mw-config anymore. When you upgrade you'll need the mw-config that comes with the code for the new version of MediaWiki you're installing.

There are cases where you still want mw-config even without upgrading. For example changing wgCategoryCollation or installing an extension with schema changes.
