[gentoo-server] www-apps/groupoffice php problem / alternative?

[Christian Könitzer]

Hello List

I'm using www-apps/groupoffice (Installed versions:
2.18.6(2.18.6)(17:26:20 18.01.2011)(-vhosts)) since years and I'm also
using www-apps/mediawiki (Installed versions:  1.16.1(1.16.1)!t(12:59:13
12.01.2011)(imagemagick mysql sqlite -math -ocamlopt -postgres -vhosts)).
In my /etc/portage/package.mask I had>=dev-lang/php-5.3.4 and
>=www-apps/mediawiki-1.14.0 because I was too lazy for upgrading
mediawiki (and because groupoffice needs that old php version!).

Now I decided to upgrade so I removed those two maskings. I solved all
update/upgrade/compile proplems so all components where finally
installed successfully. But groupoffice doesn't work now. It works when
I change the php version to the older one but than mediawiki will no
longer work. Here's my php eselct settings:
  eselect php list apache2
   [1]   php5.2
   [2]   php5.3 *

So I installed both versions (see eix php at the end of this mail).

Now my three questions:
1. Is it possible to tell apache to use the old php for groupoffice and
how can I do that?
2. For groupoffice is a newer version availlable which would use the
newer php version but it's not in portage. Why?
3. Does anybody use another groupoffice? Actually I need only the
feature for email. Usualy I connect with thunderbird to my IMAP-Server
but when I'm on the way and have only a browser I want to access IMAP
and send Emails anyway. I tried all groupware in portage  like horde and
so on, and none of them fitted my needs.

Hope someone can help. Thanks a lot and cheers
Christian
