Squirrelmail's Depends includes: libapache2-mod-php4 |
libapache-mod-php4 | php4 | php4-cgi | libapache2-mod-php5 |
libapache-mod-php5 | php5-cgi | php5

phpmyadmin's Depends includes: libapache2-mod-php5 | libapache-mod-php5
| php5-cgi | php5 | libapache2-mod-php4 | libapache-mod-php4 | php4 |
php4-cgi

I.e. neither of them should pull in libapache2-mod-php5 if php5-cgi is
already there, and a quick test here says that that is so.

Which version of Ubuntu are you on?
