It's a PHP application, so Depends on
libapache-mod-php5 | libapache2-mod-php5 | \
libapache-mod-php4 | libapache2-mod-php4 | \
php5-cgi | php4-cgi, \
php5-mysql | php5-mysqli | php4-mysql
should suffice, IMHO. Maybe even add 'httpd' to the Depends list.
If you can supply
some insight on how you got it working, I can try and add support for
it.
/etc/torrentflux/apache.conf basically holds one line:
Alias /torrentflux /usr/share/torrentflux/www
I'm currently using lighttpd, so this would translate to:
alias.url += ("/torrentflux" => "/usr/share/torrentflux/www/")
...and one could include this part in an example configuration under
/usr/share/doc/torrentflux/examples. I'm not sure how wise it is to
attempt to autoconfigure every friggin' webserver out there :-)
The issues I can think of are: how to inform the webserver of the
location of the php files (see /etc/torrentflux/apache.conf),
OK, instead of putting the alias in the ../examples directory, we can put
it in /etc/torrentflux/lighttpd.conf
and how
to start the webserver using the location (for apache a restart/reload
is required).
Wouldn't a nice "Please include the appropriate file in your webserver's
configuration and restart the server afterwards!" comment during
installation suffice?
Thanks,
Christian.
