I don't know about a preconfigured LAMP installation, but it's pretty
easy to do using aptitude/synaptic/adept/<package manager here>.
Look for the postgresql-xxx packages etc. Same goes for the other
aspects of that stack.

Do I need to remove mySQL or leave it installed?

It certainly won't *hurt* to leave it there, but it's always *smart*
to purge un-needed systems from a server.

As for installing the _A_P porrtions of LAMP, if "lamp" is a meta-
package, then:
    $ aptitude show lamp
    $ sudo aptitude install <the non-MySQL lamp dependencies>

And file an RFP bug (does Ubuntu use reportbug?) asking for a lapp
meta-package.

Is "common sense" really valid?
For example, it is "common sense" to white-power racists that
whites are superior to blacks, and that those with brown skins
are mud people.
However, that "common sense" is obviously wrong.
