I would rather not delete that file myself without review from your side. To my understanding, it is unused and can be deleted. # fgrep -Rl '70_mod_php5.conf-apache2' . ./ChangeLog-2012 ./Manifest The reason why I would like to have it removed is the use of AddHandler: # fgrep -R AddHandler . ./files/70_mod_php5.conf-apache2: AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php .php5 .phtml ./files/70_mod_php5.conf-apache2: AddHandler application/x-httpd-php-source .phps Please see bug #538822 for why that is a problem. Thank you!
Update: I just found that my call to grep was the problem. The file is actually still used: # fgrep -Rl 70_mod_php5 . | fgrep ebuild | sort ./php-5.3.29.ebuild ./php-5.4.36.ebuild ./php-5.4.37.ebuild ./php-5.4.38.ebuild ./php-5.4.39.ebuild ./php-5.5.20.ebuild ./php-5.5.21.ebuild ./php-5.5.22.ebuild ./php-5.5.23.ebuild ./php-5.6.4.ebuild ./php-5.6.5.ebuild ./php-5.6.6.ebuild ./php-5.6.7.ebuild So a fix is needed rather than removal. Please see bug #538822 for a proposed fixed. Thank you!
I intend to fix this myself with the same fix as used for eselect-php in bug #538822. Please object now, if you would like to take over. Thanks.
Update once again: File files/70_mod_php5.conf-apache2 is NOT used by the ebuilds. The previous grep matches on "70_mod_php5" are all like # fgrep -A1 70_mod_php5 *.ebuild php-5.3.29.ebuild: APACHE2_MOD_CONF="70_mod_php5" php-5.3.29.ebuild- apache-module_pkg_postinst [..] and apache-module_pkg_postinst only prints information. Furthermore, # fgrep -Rl -- -apache2 . ./Manifest ./ChangeLog-2012 and a look at the change log reveals that there was a -r1 of that file at some point https://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/dev-lang/php/files/70_mod_php5.conf-apache2?revision=1.7 https://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/dev-lang/php/files/70_mod_php5.conf-apache2-r1?revision=1.2 which fixed the AddHandler part, interestingly.
