I'm not sure the statement that PHP needs httpd_unified on is correct in
Fedora 12. I just finished doing some testing of Mythtv with this
setting turned off. I tested all TV recording, weather, and streaming
video available through the web interace and it all seems to be working
now. Granted there is a lot more to full backend Mythtv setup but it was
looking pretty good. Dan has put in two policy updates which should be
out pretty soon.

I'm not done, but I also ran a quick test of squirrelmail with dovecot
for off site email access and that appears to be working. Squirrelmail
is all PHP.
