Bug#711520: php7.3: Apache module has non-standard name

[Felix Lechner <felix.lechner@lease-up.com>]

Control: reassign -1 libapache2-mod-php7.3
Control: retitle -1 php7.3: Apache module has non-standard name

Hi,

That is exactly right. Other apache2 modules follow a different naming
scheme. It seems they would have shipped the shared object (for 7.3)
as:

    /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_php7.3.so

Are you using the right name? Should Lintian remind you to use 'mod_' instead?

Please reassign the bug back to Lintian if you would like to see a warning.

Kind regards
