example:

The following NEW packages will be installed:

desired behaviour:
$apt-get install php5 (aptitude, or whatever installation method method you like) would actually provide php5 (or at least install another package which does)
in other words, this would then work:
$ php --version
5.2.6 (or whatever)

ok, I see that one has to do
sudo apt-get install php5-cli
to recieve php avail via the command line.
I suppose that is reasonable
