</I>&gt;<i> wiki
</I>The current setup of our mediawiki package - which will be changed but 
not before Mga2 release - does some strange things.

The package mediawiki requires mediawiki-minimal which itself requires 
php-mysql and php-pgsql.

It can now be discussed, why php-mysql and php-pgsql do not require php 
itself and a webserver.
This should perhaps filed as a bugreport assigned to the php maintainer, 
it's imho not a good idea to let mediawiki require php directly Other 
distros - iirc fedora - do provide a php package for use with a 
webserver and another one for use on the cli.
Php itself can be used as a script language on the command line as well.

The database server itself is explicitely not required, since you can 
use a database running on a different server.
It's not a good idea to let mediawiki require the database server 
itself, since it will bloat a server setup which relys on a remote 
database server.
