Re: [gentoo-server] Need help installing Apache with PHP on our server

[Ronald Vazquez]

Hello:

So far, thanks to David Abbott and you Ricardo.  I am starting to read 
the docs now.  I ran the emerge -vp and here is the output:

##############################
# emerge -vp apache php mysql

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies -

!!! The short ebuild name "php" is ambiguous.  Please specify
!!! one of the following fully-qualified ebuild names instead:

    dev-lang/php
    dev-php/php
##############################


Which one of those should I install, *lang/* or *php/*?  Does it matter?

Thanks again for the prompt reply,
RV
