[php-maint] Bug#490023: install of php5-pgsql should ideally reload apache2 if libapache2-mod-php5 is in use

[Gavin McCullagh]

Package: php5-pgsql
Version: 5.2.0-8+etch11
Severity: wishlist


When upgrading an etch web server from PHP4 to PHP5 I recently did something like

	apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5 php5-cli php5-common php5-pgsql php5-mysql .....

and all went reasonably well, except that when I went to look at the main web application it was down due to pgsql not being available.

This was because apache2 was restarted when libapache2-mod-php5 was installed, but php5-pgsql was subsequently installed without a restart of apache2, 
so PHP5 had not yet loaded the pgsql support.

It seems like installing modules like php5-pgsql should probably trigger this restart if libapache2-mod-php5 is installed?
