I just reinstalled my LAMP (Linux/Apache/Mysql/PHP) development server at my office. I'm keeping track of -everything- I do while setting it up so my coworkers can have some idea how to do it themselves. I installed the following packages (selected via aptitude), and then installed any "recommended" packages as well.
apache2-mpm-prefork libapache2-mod-php4 php4 php4-cli php4-mysql mysql-client mysql-server That assortment of packages should do it for you, and allow you to use php4 and mysql at the command line as well. The rest comes down to setting up the config files for each of them; /etc/php4/apache2/php.ini for php4, /etc/mysql/my.cnf for mysql, /etc/apache2/apache2.conf and /etc/apache2/sites-available/default for apache2. I also installed phpmyadmin because I like administering things remotely, and php4-sybase because some of the sites I develop connect to an mssql database on another server.
