[Bug 315507] [NEW] Unable to remove Suhosin patch

[John Wards]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: php5

I am unable to remove the Suhosin patch from PHP without manual intervention as documented on this blog:
http://ambitonline.com/nextrelease/archives/113-How-to-Ubuntu-PHP-Remove-Suhosin.html

I can get my head around why it is installed by default, but not the
reasons why it doesn't use the provided package to do it so people can
remove it if they need to.

This is a serious flaw in the package management.
