While installing a web server, I've been pondering some serious question...
"Do I really need that package?"
I've noticed that when you install your packages for your web server,
you often have two "version" of the same package.
For example, while installing php7.4, you can install php-mbstring
and php7.4-mbstring
Or php-gd
and php7.4-gd
.
So my question is, if I install php7.4-mbstring
, do I also need to install php-mbstring
?
Does it works the same with all packages having the same naming pattern (php-dev
=>php7.4-dev
, etc)
