Lintian tag: web-application-works-only-with-apache

Type: warning

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

The package appears to be a web application but declares a dependency
against apache2 without any alternative. Most web applications should work
with any decent web server, thus such a package should be satisfied if any
web server providing the virtual "httpd" package is installed. This can be
accomplished by declaring a package relation in the form "apache2 |
httpd".

Visibility: warning
Show-Always: no
Check: apache2
Renamed from: web-application-should-not-depend-unconditionally-on-apache2
