A concern of mine is how the apache server ports are heading... You have a choice of using apache1[23]-php3 with several different databases (mysql, msql, etc). What if someone already installed this port for an application that uses msql? The port doesn't require apache*-php3, it requires a web server, and php3 compiled with mysql support. Not all three together. > Should we create apache13-php3-ssl-fp ports? :) Or how about php3-ldap-mysql ports.... You see where my dilemma is. I hate the possibility of having seperate ports install their own customization of one program, but I hate having to consider every combination of a port. Now I'm depressed and will move on to something else pending wisdom from satoshi or someone. :> - bill fumerola [root/billf]@chc-chimes.com - computer horizons corp - - ph:(800)252.2421 x128 / bfumerol@computerhorizons.com - BF1560 - "Logic, like whiskey, loses its beneficial effect when taken in too large quantities" -Lord Dunsany To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
