[Pkg-giraffe-discuss] installation of mapi.ini (in php7.0-mapi)

[Carsten Schoenert]

Hello,

happy new year to everyone!

A friend of mine helped me to create configuration files for nginx and
lighttpd for the kopano-webapp package.

It turns out we needed to tweak especially the searchplaces for
mapi.conf from the php7.0-mapi package.

Currently the mapi.ini file is placed in /etc/php/7.0/cgi/conf.d/mapi.ini.

The webserver nginx needs the package php-fpm which itself needs the
mapi.ini in the folder /etc/php/7.0/fpm/conf.d/

lighttpd is using the modul fastcgi and fastcgi-php from php-cgi which
is searching in /etc/php/7.0/cgi/conf.d/
So there needs to be mapi.ini also around if lighttpd is used.

So we need to improve the php7.0-mapi package I think. I looked how
other packages this ini files are placing. Typically all *.ini files are
installed into the folder /etc/php/7.0/mods-available/ and is linking
the ini into the other folders.

So I think the mapi.ini needs to be installed into
/etc/php/7.0/mods-available/ and we need to do some linking of that
file. If we do so the autoconf/php.m4 needs to be changed and
PHP_SYSCONF_DIR must adjusted to /etc/php/7.0/mods-available/
accordingly. php-cgi is doing the linking into the other folders within
the postinst I think.

I also found some other issue as the commit ef3dcb9e (adjust search path
for php-config script on php7.0) was fixing the problem only partially.
We also need to do something like this as otherwise some automatic
Depends are missing:
