...You can redo your maintainer scripts to do this interfacing via,
say, php4-cli - Agree, this would again introduce a dependency on
something used only for the installation (and, in this case, three
times larger, not counting any other dependencies that would pull in
as well), but if your webapp does any server-side maintenance
(i.e. cronjobs) written in PHP as well, this might be the way out.
