Public bug reported:

Description:    Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Release:        14.04


I have a system with the following packages installed:

ii  php5                                5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4           all       
   server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (metapackage)
ii  php5-cgi                            5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4           amd64     
   server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (CGI binary)
ii  php5-common                         5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4           amd64     
   Common files for packages built from the php5 source
ii  php5-gd                             5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4           amd64     
   GD module for php5
ii  php5-json                           1.3.2-2build1                 amd64     
   JSON module for php5
ii  php5-mysql                          5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4           amd64     
   MySQL module for php5

If I attempt to update these, libapache2-mod-php5 gets pulled in as a
dependency although the installed php5-cgi should be sufficient to
satisfy the dependency requirements of php5:

The following NEW packages will be installed:
   libapache2-mod-php5 (5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4.1)
   php5-cli (5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4.1)
   php5-readline (5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4.1)
The following packages will be upgraded:
   php5 (5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4 => 5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4.1)
   php5-cgi (5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4 => 5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4.1)
   php5-common (5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4 => 5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4.1)
   php5-gd (5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4 => 5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4.1)
   php5-mysql (5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4 => 5.5.9+dfsg-1ubuntu4.1)

If I update the php5-* packages first and then attempt to update php5
everything works as expected.
