no, it will not. php-cgi is a virtual package that currently depends on php-cgi7.0. It will set up a symlink to /etc/alternatives/php-cgi and this points to the current /usr/bin/php-cgi7.0 binary. root@debian:~# ls -l /usr/bin/php-cgi lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Apr 9 12:18 /usr/bin/php-cgi -> /etc/alternatives/php-cgi root@debian:~# ls -l /etc/alternatives/php-cgi lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Apr 9 12:18 /etc/alternatives/php-cgi -> /usr/bin/php-cgi7.0 But /etc/lighttpd/conf-available/15-fastcgi-php.conf is using /usr/bin/php5-cgi in the configuration, so that can't work. The setup of 15-fastcgi-php.conf isn't using /usr/bin/php-cgi7.0 nor /usr/bin/php-cgi. Regards Carsten
