You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:

I would try the command:
aptitude -f --with-recommends dist-upgrade

Aptitute has better control over dependencies then apt.
With the command above, i think you're able to fix the problem.
(You can still use this command after your upgrade to Etch).

Good luck!

I think the problem is that you have PHP installed as a module, and the module works with apache2-mpm-prefork, but not with apache2-mpm-worker.

[planet_fox]

How can do ? remove php5 ?

[falko]

You can remove the PHP module and install PHP as CGI.
