Package: lintian Version: 2.5.6~bpo60+1 Severity: wishlist Hi,
I have just noticed that some packages directly depend on libapache2-mod-php5 which basically disables the ability to use other SAPI (such as fastcgi, etc.) Such packages probably need to depend just on php5 package which declares dependency on: libapache2-mod-php5 (>= 5.4.1~rc1-1) | libapache2-mod-php5filter (>= 5.4.1~rc1-1) | php5-cgi (>= 5.4.1~rc1-1) | php5-fpm (>= 5.4.1~rc1-1) One example is zoneminder which depends on: libapache2-mod-php5, php5 Here is should be changed either to: libapache2-mod-php5 | php5 or just: php5 Because php5 is not a virtual package it will install it's first dependency by default which is libapache2-mod-php5, so the behaviour stays the same. Another example is ukolovnik or moodle: libapache2-mod-php5 | php5-cgi This dependency for example prevents usage of php5-fpm (FastCgi Process Manager) SAPI, which is much better choice than php5-cgi.
