Description freebsd 2014-02-01 21:00:00 UTC
devel/otrs port depends on apache webserver and modules. It should be possible to install it on it's own.

To submitter: please explain how do you run it without "unnecessary" apache?

Comment 4 freebsd 2014-02-03 13:47:04 UTC
It's just perl, so can run it with almost any webserver. For instance 
with www/nginx + www/p5-FCGI ( http://zlonet.ru/page/nginxperlotrs/ ). 
That's why it would be good to just pull in the apache dependencies if 
selected in config.

Now I see.
But we can not just drop apache dependency. Before doing that we
should at least:
1) Add fastcgi deps as an alternative (option Apache/fastcgi)
2) In case of fastcgi provide rc script for launching otrs fastcgi
process on boot
3) In case of fastcgi provide an example config for nginx/lightttpd webserver.

CC www/otrs maintainer again.

Looks like discussion is dead, proposal rejected.  Feel free to reopen if something changes.
