>Description:

	when installing the www/cvsweb package, the www/apache package is
	installed unconditionally.  i have my own web server and would
	very much like not to install apache espcially when i'm not going
	to use it...

>How-To-Repeat:

	install www/cvsweb, note that it's trying to download apache.
	
>Fix:

	don't depend on apache.  make the user install their web server
	of choice and don't force them to install apache.
