[Bug 372081] [NEW] Too rigid requirements

[DonQuichote]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mantis

Looking at the Mantis site, any web server that can handle PHP should
do. However, I cannot install mantis without getting either apache or
httpd. I have The Abyss webserver installed and there is no way to tell
the package management system that I already HAVE a fine web server. And
I don't want clashes with apache. The best solution would be if there
were an "abstract" web server package so I can tell that I have a web
server that is unknown to the package system.

If this is the wrong place to file this bug, please tell me where I
should file it.

Outcome of lsb_release -rd:
Description:	Ubuntu 9.04
Release:	9.04

No mantis package installed, as the install is the problem.

I expect a dependency on PHP alone or on "any web server". But for the
latter, such a possibility should exist.
