Package: apache
Version: 1.3.34-4.1
Severity: important

Because of the upgrade bug reported by someone else, I had to remove the 
previous apache 2.2 installation. After starting from scratch, apache 
failed to generate the php5.conf and php5.load files, although 
libphp5.so is present. The previously used php5.conf and php5.load files 
keep apache from starting. It seems that php5 cannot be used with this 
apache version.

A re-install of php5 and apache doesn't help.

I'm closing this bug as probable user error; it seems to involve
understanding the dpkg conffile feature.  Please reopen it if this
turns out not to be the case.

Those files are shipped by libapache2-mod-php5, not by any of the
apache packages.  They are also conffiles, which is dpkg slang for
files treated specially by the package manager as configuration files
and only upgraded if either (a) they haven't been edited manually, or
(b) the sysadmin confirms that it's ok to overwrite the local changes.
"Local changes" includes not only editing, but deleting a file.

Simplest way to fix your problem:

aptitude purge libapache2-mod-php5
aptitude install libapache2-mod-php5
