Package: pnp4nagios-web Version: 0.6.12-1~bpo60+1 Severity: normal Tags: patch
Trying to install pnp4nagios-web (from squeeze-backports on debian squeeze) on a system with lighttpd already installed: pnp4nagios-web wants to install apache2. This is caused by dependency on php5. I think this ist not ok. It should also work with lighttpd and php5-cgi or any other webserver/php5 combination. The following procedure did me let install it without apache2: 1. install php5-cgi (which is one dependency of php5) 2. install php5 (which is now satisfied by php5-cgi) these to steps prevent the installation of apache2 3. touch and chmod +x /etc/init.d/apache2 this prevents pnp4nagios-web from postinst error 4. install pnp4nagios-web OK, this is just a workaround. And this is the "patch": imho the package should get another OR dependency on php5-cgi (Depends: libapache2-mod-php5 | php5-cgi | php5) and postinst should not rely on an existing apache2 start script. regards, Matthias -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.4 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'stable-updates') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
