mediawiki isn't working "out of the box"

  Forgive me if this is plain ignorance, but I've been trying to use the 
EPEL mediawiki package with CentOS 5.2 and I'm either missing some 
documentation or something isn't right here. According to the package 
description all I have to do is copy the /var/www/wiki directory to 
someplace like /var/www/html/techwiki for example. However, it looks 
like it's missing includes, which makes sense since this is all there is 
in /var/www/wiki:

drwxr-xr-x 2 apache apache 4096 Mar  4 13:39 config
drwxr-xr-x 2 root   root   4096 Oct  1 14:51 images
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root   root     30 Mar  4 13:39 index.php -> /usr/share/mediawiki/index.php


Here are the errors I'm getting when I point a browser to 
http://myserver/techwiki/:

[Wed Mar 04 15:03:15 2009] [error] [client 192.168.6.10] PHP Warning:

(include_path='.:/usr/share/pear:/usr/share/php') in 
/var/www/html/techwiki/config/index.php on line 39

Am I the only one seeing this? Should I file a bug?
