Gosa has a hard dependency on PHP IMAP during setup which cannot be skipped. The gosa debian package had a dependency on php-imap which was removed in trixie with the following comment in the changelog:

"Drop from D: (gosa): php-imap. Not needed anymore for 2.8~ versions
       of GOsa² in Debian. The 2.8~ version of GOsa² in Debian ships far
       less plugins, so php-imap is not a direct dependency of the
       stripped down GOsa² core anymore."

This is true for updates, but for new installations it still checks for PHP IMAP during the web-based setup and doesn't let you skip it.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Clean Debian install
2. Install apache2 and gosa package
3. Navigate to http://myhost/gosa
4. Web-based setup will start and check for PHP IMAP on the second page, saying "GOsa will NOT run without fixing this".
