The problem is not only between php5 and apache :
mediawiki depends on mysql (What if you prefer pgsql ?)
mediawiki depends on php5 -> depends on apache (What if you prefer Lighttpd ?)
It seems like mysql and apache are taken as if there would be no
alternative (and as if there couldn't be any). Please fix
Thanks

Title:
PHP5 now depends on libapache2-mod-php5 even if lighttpd installed
Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Binary package hint: php5
Following a recent apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade , PHP5 appears to now depend on libapache2-mod-php5 .
Since I use lighttpd, and do not have nor want apache installed, this
dependency then attempts to drag in the whole apache server. If I let
it do this, I suspect apache would clash horribly with lighttpd.
I have therefore refused the latest updates. I know I could work
around this with judicious use of dpkg force options, but I would
prefer it if the PHP5 dependency were fixed.
I am using Ubuntu Hardy server 8.04.3.
