[php-maint] Bug#398481: libapache2-mod-php5: Dependency on apache2-mpm-prefork prevents use with apache2-mpm-itk

Package: libapache2-mod-php5
Version: 5.1.6-5
Severity: normal

Because of the versioned dependency upon apache2-mpm-prefork, it is not
possible to use libapache2-mod-php5 with the apache2-mpm-itk package. I
tried altering apache2-mpm-itk to Provide apache2-mpm-prefork, but this
is no good as the dependency is versioned.

Apache MPMs seem to be divided up into two types: single-threaded and
multi-threaded. I think the best way to solve this problem would be to
make the various apache2-mpm-foo packages Provide the virtual packages
apache2-mpm-singlethreaded or apache2-mpm-multithreaded as appropriate;
then libapache2-mod-php5 can depend on apache2-mpm-singlethreaded.
