[Ubuntu] MapServer 6.4 on Ubuntu 12.04

[Randal Hale]

I just did an update of mapserver and updated php5-mapscript and it's 
tossing an error. If I may say these lists are quite amazing - on the 
geomoose list they were just talking about the upgrade. I've been 
following their lead and install php5-mapscript and thats when it tossed 
an error:

Setting up php5-mapscript (6.4.1-3~precise1) ...
/var/lib/dpkg/info/php5-mapscript.postinst: 11: 
/var/lib/dpkg/info/php5-mapscript.postinst: php5enmod: not found
dpkg: error processing php5-mapscript (--configure):
  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit 
status 127
Errors were encountered while processing:
  php5-mapscript
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I guess the big question is this something on my end or a problem with 
mapserver? I'm on a VM of 12.04 LTS

BTW - thanks for the upgrade to 6.4.1 - I was in the middle of compiling 
and was going slightly cross eyed.
