[Bug 423071] Re: PHP5 now depends on libapache2-mod-php5 even if lighttpd installed

[Ondřej Surý]

I don't think there's a bug in PHP5 here, if the apache2 is getting
installed then it's a bug in APT resolving the dependencies somewhere.

Also it _is_ documented:
 This package is a meta-package that, when installed, guarantees that you
 have at least one of the four server-side versions of the PHP5 interpreter
 installed. Removing this package won't remove PHP5 from your system, however
 it may remove other packages that depend on this one.

And there's no bug in 9.10 - this is normal behaviour. If you run "apt-
get install php5" it will install the first alternative dependency. If
you did "apt-get install php5 php5-cgi" then it would work.
