[Bug 1076489] Re: Cannot be uninstalled without installing Apache2
PHP5 can be used without any web related stuff. So there is no need to pull web stuff when PHP5 is installed. On the other side, php5-cgi does need web stuff as CGI a web technology. Your suggestion proved to be good, though. ** Changed in: php5 (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to php5 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1076489 Title: Cannot be uninstalled without installing Apache2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php5/+bug/1076489/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

[Bug 1076489] Re: Cannot be uninstalled without installing Apache2
I'm sorry I cannot say which dependencies I'd like to have: I have no idea. All I can tell you is that among php5 dependencies I see: libapache2-mod-php5 (= 5.4.6-1ubuntu1) | libapache2-mod-php5filter (= 5.4.6-1ubuntu1) | php5-cgi (= 5.4.6-1ubuntu1) | php5-fpm (= 5.4.6-1ubuntu1), If I'm not wrong, it says that I need ad least one of them in order to have PHP5. All of these dependencies seem to imply a web server and two imply specifically Apache2. Which seems to be wrong in my humble opinion: I am supposed I can use PHP5 with no webserver at all. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to php5 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1076489 Title: Cannot be uninstalled without installing Apache2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php5/+bug/1076489/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 1076489] Re: Cannot be uninstalled without installing Apache2
You are very likely right. I tried to test a web application which needed a number of php5 stuff to be pulled. Once I decided the tests were over, I tried to uninstall those packages. The end situation was the one I described. php5-cgi says: Description-en: server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (CGI binary) This package provides the /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php5 CGI interpreter built for use in Apache 2 with mod_actions, or any other CGI httpd that supports a similar mechanism. Note that MOST Apache users probably want the libapache2-mod-php5 package. The following extensions are built in: bcmath bz2 calendar Core ctype date dba dom ereg exif fileinfo filter ftp gettext hash iconv json libxml mbstring mhash openssl pcntl pcre Phar posix Reflection session shmop SimpleXML soap sockets SPL standard sysvmsg sysvsem sysvshm tokenizer wddx xml xmlreader xmlwriter zip zlib. apache2 says: Description-en: Apache HTTP Server metapackage The Apache Software Foundation's goal is to build a secure, efficient and extensible HTTP server as standards-compliant open source software. The result has long been the number one web server on the Internet. . It features support for HTTPS, virtual hosting, CGI, SSI, IPv6, easy scripting and database integration, request/response filtering, many flexible authentication schemes, and more. I don't really understand from the descriptions how they are mutually exclusive, as seen in my 1st post. Moreover, if one of them requires php5, that package should get expunged along with them, whichever I ask to uninstall. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to php5 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1076489 Title: Cannot be uninstalled without installing Apache2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php5/+bug/1076489/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 1076489] [NEW] Cannot be uninstalled without installing Apache2
Public bug reported: I need to remove all HTTP related stuff. Among these I've found the package php5-cgi. If I ask to purge it, I am asked to install apache2. And the other way around as well. It should be possible to purge php5-cgi without the need to install apache2.
