Description Daniele Viganò 2011-09-13 13:34:22 UTC
Description of problem:

php-extras from EPEL (in ex. php-mcrypt) has 'php' in dependencies, so if you want to install it you are forced by yum to install whole Apache (httpd) also when you are using lighttpd or nginx.
php-extras should have 'php-common' as dependence instead of 'php', like in Fedora, so you don't need to install 'php' and 'httpd' if you have already 'php-cgi' installed with it's dependencies ('php-common').


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Name       : php-mcrypt
Arch       : x86_64
Version    : 5.3.2
Release    : 3.el6
Size       : 16 k
Repo       : epel


How reproducible:

yum install -y lighttpd lighttpd-fastcgi php-cgi
yum install php-mcrypt


Actual results:

Comment 3 Dmitry Butskoy 2011-09-13 14:39:35 UTC
I prefer to use just "php-api = ..." dependency (which currently provided by php-common).

You're right, php-api should be sufficient and more correct.
