Hi,
I'm installing a application server for php based web applications.
I'm using: apache2, php and postgresql database server.
After a clean Ubuntu 9.04 install and upgrade I tried to install
the above mentioned packages and got something interesting:
$ sudo apt-get install apache2 php5 php5-pgsql postgresql-8.3 postgresql-client-8.3

The following extra packages will be installed:
apache2-mpm-prefork apache2-utils apache2.2-common libapache2-mod-php5
libapr1 libaprutil1 libmysqlclient15off libpq5 mysql-common php5-common
postgresql-client-common postgresql-common
Suggested packages:
apache2-doc apache2-suexec apache2-suexec-custom php-pear oidentd
ident-server postgresql-doc-8.3
The following NEW packages will be installed:
apache2 apache2-mpm-prefork apache2-utils apache2.2-common
libapache2-mod-php5 libapr1 libaprutil1 libmysqlclient15off libpq5

After this operation, 36.4MB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]?
Checking the extra packages that will be installed due to dependecies I was surprised that I saw libmysqlclient15off and mysql-common. I was surprised to see these packages bacause I don't want to use mysql.
I continued digging to see which packages depend on mysql-commond and got:
$ apt-rdepends php5|grep mysql

and
$ apt-rdepends libapache2-mod-php5|grep mysql

mysql-common
So I'm wandering, does anyone know why php5 package depends on mysql-common?
