MediaWiki requires Composer 2 and will not work with Composer 1 any 
more. I have ran into the same issue myself 
(https://github.com/MatmaRex/patchdemo/issues/501).

It's not clear to me whether this is a bug or an intentional 
compatibility break. Looks like 
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T316556 is a bug report about this, 
but it's also connected to a task about dropping compatibility, so I 
wouldn't hold my breath waiting for it to be fixed.

You will need to either:

* Upgrade your Ubuntu to a version that ships with Composer 2 – looking 
at https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=composer , that would be 
Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy.

* Or install Composer 2 manually instead of from the system repositories 
– https://getcomposer.org/download/
