Why punish everyone by default because of Apache? Does not make sense to me.
What is so difficult to grok about 1. setting up php-cgi to use fastcgi as the httpd default. 2. having parallel non-zts and zts installs of php (notably with only
     non-zts cli and cgi sapi's) with two different lib paths.  Multiply
     by two again if you have parallel i686 and x86_64 installs.
All of these are packager's questions anyways, as so few users do this for themself, most hosters aren't rebuilding php either. PHP would be a much nicer, friendly and more civilized development list if it borrowed only one phrase from the Perl community; TMTOWTDI.
These are useful suggestions for a future "bigger picture" direction about sensible defaults, usability (or lack of), php-fpm, etc. This is a problem looking for an owner. In the narrow confines of https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61172 the packager has deliberately chosen to install mod_php. Like Sebastian, I prefer that PHP configures itself for the currently installed Apache MPM. Chris -- Email: christopher.jones@oracle.com Tel: +1 650 506 8630 Blog: http://blogs.oracle.com/opal/
