Package: php4
Severity: important
Meta package PHP4 should be have php4-cgi and php4-cli added to its depends.
I.e., it should depend on
php4-cgi|php4-cli|libapache-mod-php4|libapache2-mod-php4. This causes problems
where other packages such as phpmyadmin, squirrelmail, etc attempt to install
apache (even though php4 works perfectly well with other httpds.)
Example:
sudo apt-get install php4 php4-cgi -t stable

$ apt-cache show php4

Depends: libapache2-mod-php4 (>= 4:4.4.2-1) | libapache-mod-php4 (>=
4:4.4.2-1) | php4-cgi (>= 4:4.4.2-1), php4-common (>= 4:4.4.2-1)
In etch and sid, php4-cgi is included in the dependencies. This
couldn't be done in sarge for historical migration reasons,
unfortunately. As for adding php4-cli to the dependencies, that won't
ever happen, since the php4 metapackage is meant to provide a
server-side PHP implementation for web applications to depend on, not a
shell interpreter.
