Description Ivan Tonchev Gochev 2006-12-05 09:50:02 UTC

I have installed FreeBSD 5.4.
I decided to update Apache-PHP-Mysql to the latest versions using packages as described in the handbook.
I deleted the old php4.3.x version that comes with freebsd 5.4
So i set PACKAGESITE to 

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5-stable/Latest/

It the new packages installed just fine. But when i started apache there was no php4 module for it. I checked in libexec dir and it really wasn't there.

then i searched through the package php4-4.4.4_1 and again i found no php4 module for apache. So i checked the package in the packages-5.5-release which is php4-4.4.2_1.tbz and i found the module.

For some reason it is missing in latest php4-4.4.4_1 package.

Ok may be i'm doing somehting wrong. But if not i just want to let you know.

This seems more like a Ports PR then something for the webmasters, 
reassign.

The reason for this issue is, that lang/php4 has the option APACHE 
disabled by default and package building is done with default options. 
By making this option enabled the port would depend on apache. 
Assign to maintainer for further decision on this.

This is a choice, a packaged php module is quite useless.
