>Description:
PHP is the most common WWW technology and is used for LAMP configurations very often.

FreeBSD is very common WWW server OS, especially with Apache HTTPd server.

FreeBSD's package collection ships PHP lang/php5 without Apache libphp5.so module. In order to get PHP in Apache, I must fetch ports collection and explicitly build it, to get .php files handled.

I really believe this should be provided by the php5 port, or some other port. I don't want to have to build PHP on my jailed environments.
>How-To-Repeat:
pkg_add -r php5
find /usr/local | grep libphp5.so

Returns nothing.
>Fix:
Please try to figure out a way to simplify very popular installation types, like e.g.: LAMP server.
