Apache and PHP  

Apache 1.3.29 and PHP 4.3.4 both came out so I've been repackaging RPMs like a madman. I think they time the release of those two on purpose. I've got my own RPM that combines apache and php into one rpm with all my favorite goodies compiled just the way I like em. When you have 25+ servers that need apache on them it sure is nice to package them and make your own urpmi source for them. Once the rpm package is compiled and tested it takes me about 15 minutes to upgrade all the servers. :)
For some reason PHP always seems to come out a few days after apache. So just as soon as I've got my rpm package upgraded to the new apache, bam, i get to start all over again with php. But still, it sure beats having to manually install apache on each machine.
