[horde] What is the current status from installation perspective

[Michael Schlueter]

Hi Carsten,

for the installation with horde-deployment I was using following 
directories in my apache config:
<VirtualHost
...
DocumentRoot /srv/www/horde-deployment/web/
...
<Directory "/srv/www/horde-deployment/web/">
...

But as Ralf already mentioned I would recommend to follow his suggestion 
to install horde completely with composer2:
<https://www.ralf-lang.de/2023/10/27/maintainas-horde-6-goes-upstream/>
composer create-project horde/bundle .
composer require horde/imp ^7
composer require horde/turba
composer require horde/kronolith ^5 horde/nag ^5 horde/passwd 
horde/timeobjects horde/content
It's a bit annoying that you have to use the explicit major versions for 
some apps right now. They are not intuitive for end users. That will go 
away soon though.

This should work with php version 8.0, 8.1 and 8.2.

The package for whups is also there but the requires in horde/schedule 
is looking for php 7 so that I was not able to test it so far.

BR
Michael
