This was originally announced almost a year ago, but I thought I had a better solution which took me longer to get right because well I was doing it all wrong. However I think I have fixed all those issues and am ready to get reviews.

I need initial testing and feedback on these packages. They are NOT 1:1 drop in replacements with the current mediawiki RPM.
1) mediawiki-math is removed. A person who installed mediawiki got it automatically and only if you only installed mediawiki-nomath did you not get it. 2) I have removed the sharedpath patch as implemented before with a smaller one that not as functional meets upstreams view. 3) The packages are parallel installable. I have tested this on minimal build systems and it seems to work well. I need more eyes though because I might have foo'd something 4) I need help on figuring out the best way to deal with current mediawiki in the repository.
Thanks
