gdbm 1.8.0, zlib 1.2.3, expat 1.2, Sablotron 1.0, libxml 2.4.26, Ming 0.2a, Webalizer 2.01, pdf class 009e,
ncurses 5.8, mod_perl 2.0.1, FreeTDS 0.63, gettext 0.11.5, IMAP C-Client 2004e, OpenLDAP (client) 2.3.11,

Short answer: no.
Long answer: This is not something the apache team wants to do. If
somebody wants to make a package which sets up a LAMP (whether the P
is for perl, python, php or some other language), they're obviously
free to do so. If so, an RFP (request for packaging) is probably what
you want, not a wishlist bug report against apache.
