Hi!

A while ago Renat (rl03@g.o) provided virtuals for packages that
depend on a web server. Currently many of the web applications
depended on Apache or don't pull in a web server at all which is of
course problematic.

The corresponding bug: 

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11007

If you maintain a package that requires a web server for publication
you should make the application depend on the corresponding virtual:

 virtual/httpd-basic  : if it only needs static HTML publishing

 virtual/httpd-cgi    : if it needs a server with cgi support

 virtual/httpd-fastcgi: if it needs a server with fastcgi support

Cheers,

Gunnar
