As far as I have understood packages should not depend directly on these packages. Only packages that provide a php module should do that. So I do not think this is a good solution, or do you have some other information on what the current policy is? I think it is pretty good to depend on php4 and php5 directly as it has been seen that it is not trivial to switch. You will most certainly see a number of problems when switching. That is what my experience is anyway. :) Regards, // Ola > -- --------------------- Ola Lundqvist --------------------------- / [EMAIL PROTECTED] Annebergsslingan 37 \ | [EMAIL PROTECTED] 654 65 KARLSTAD | | +46 (0)54-10 14 30 +46 (0)70-332 1551 | | http://www.opal.dhs.org UIN/icq: 4912500 | \ gpg/f.p.: 7090 A92B 18FE 7994 0C36 4FE4 18A1 B1CF 0FE5 3DD9 / --------------------------------------------------------------- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
