Description Martin Schipany 2003-06-06 03:17:24 UTC

I wanted to install mod_php on my server, an this package wants to install
uw-imap, despite of a installed cyrus. I have imap in my USE setting because of
the installed cyrus-imapd on this machine. 

does mod_php need "uw" or will it work with "cyrus"? Is there anything special
about uw that cyrus cannot provide? and if cyrus is sufficient, why then this
strict depency? (If this is not a bug, please let me know)

I can emerge mod_php with explicit USE="-imap" and everything seems to work, but
I guess I will be missing imap-features in php in the future this way.
