Case in point, I just installed FreeBSD 4.6 on a machine, i chose to install
mod_php from /stand/sysinstall.

It ofcourse installed php, with mysql as a dependency, i was annoyed, but
when
i looked at what was actually installed, it was just "mysql client".

The actually server did not get installed at all.

Jeff.
