as of today it is not a good idea to use "kolab" from the OpenPKG repository.
The Kolab project is using OpenPKG but they needed some adjustments to make
their solution work, diverging from the original. Tomorrow the last attempt to
resynchronize and import the diverged code back into OpenPKG celebrates it's
second anniversary - in Internet time frames it means the OpenPKG "kolab"
package is ancient :-)

The good news is that (independent of your inquiry, really) I talked to Kolab
project management yesterday and chances are we get back on track before the
next snapshot mid February 2007.

Until work starts on that endeavor it's best to download the latest Kolab
packages from Kolab, not from OpenPKG.

I investigated and found out the problem you are talking exists with
apache-1.3.37-2.20061018 and has been fixed in 2-STABLE [1] with
apache-1.3.37-2.20061103. The same package was recently copied as update into
2-STABLE-20061018 [2]. So this problem should be fixed now.

I do not know all the details but it is my understanding that in order to build
mod_php using static code for both the source trees of Apache and PHP need to
be mixed or at least they must be available simultaneously. Entwined building,
that means unpacking two packages at the same time to mix them together, is not
a feature of RPM. Fortunately such a situation does not happen often so for the
rare cases embedding is a viable solution. And BTW there is an option to build
Apache w/o PHP and let it run the external PHP for every request. Which is a
clean solution but also a performance killer.

    creates package files for ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/stable/2 
[2] 2-STABLE-20061018 Snapshot
    creates package files for ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/stable/2.20061018
