Okay.  I have removed dev-php/php-4.4.0 and installed dev-lanp/php-5.0.5 
and everything appears to be working okay (except for Squirelmail, but I 
have another thread started for that discussion).  But, now when I do a 
emerge -uaDv world, it wants to install dev-php/php-4.4.0.  Can I have a 
system with only 5.0.5 installed?  Or do I need to install 4.4.0 also?  
Can I tell what program is installed that wants php-4.4.0?

If I run an equery depends php, I get the following:

apple var # equery depends php
[ Searching for packages depending on php... ]
dev-lang/swig-1.3.21
dev-php/PEAR-Console_Getopt-1.2-r1
dev-php/PEAR-Archive_Tar-1.3.2
dev-php/PEAR-PEAR-1.3.6-r1
dev-php/PEAR-XML_RPC-1.4.4
www-apps/net2ftp-0.82


I guess one of those programs is wanting php4?

Thanks,
Jeff
