Debian does not allow complex dependencies. Upon install, you need to check that you have the correct packages installed. If you want to use MySQL, you need mysql-client and php5-mysql. For PostgreSQL, you need postgresql-client and php5-pgsql. For SQLite, you need sqlite and php5-sqlite. For better compatibility, the schema used for MySQL is the one targeted at MySQL 4.0, not the one for MySQL 4.1 or MySQL 5.x. -- Vincent Bernat , Tue, 22 May 2007 21:17:27 +0200
