With the exception of phpMyAdmin, I don't think I've ever seen a piece of PHP software that you could really just apt-get and have easily installed. So this is definitely a worthy goal to pursue.
I too would love it if I could set up a simple Wiki on an Ubuntu/Debian box by typing "apt-get install mediawiki mediawiki-extension-XYZ mediawiki-extension-ZYX".
Platonides has been doing this work with the Debian developers on the mediawiki-distributors list.
We still need someone to work with the RedHat/Fedora folks. I initially said I would but I haven't had as much time to commit to that as I thought I would. If someone is familiar with RPMs, this is a great place to help MediaWiki.
Mark.
