That warning could be clearer about what it's referring to.

Where does it say it's unsupported? Some older

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.

am open to any suggestions that have a friendly

Solaris is an option also.
