Description Roland Rasmussen 2005-09-13 18:11:35 UTC 
The www-apps/ampache-3.3.1.4.ebuild for Ampache (www.ampache.org) has an RDEPEND 
on net-www/apache, but ampache will in fact run on any webserver that supplies a 
PHP environment.

The RDEPEND should be removed as it forces installation of apache even if a user 
want's to use e.g. www-servers/lighttpd as webserver.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge ampache
Actual Results:  
net-www/apache is installed as a dependency of ampache, even if I want to use 
www-servers/lighttpd as webserver.

Expected Results:  
Not have a dependency on net-www/apache. E.g. www-apps/wordpress is also a PHP-
based web application, and here there is (correctly) no dependency on net-www/
apache.

We don't have any virtual for www-servers, sorry.
Comment 2 Roland Rasmussen 2005-09-14 04:05:35 UTC 
Yes, I know the problem is lack of a virtual for www-servers.

I suppose the only workaround for now is to copy the ebuild to the portage 
overlay and remove the apache dependency?

This was fixed by cardoe a while back by replacing apache with
virtual/httpd-php. Closing.
