From synthetic reading through the web on establishing an Arch-LAMP I understand that when installing Apache I should do:



pacman -S apache


and then



systemctl enable httpd


Why in the installation it's apache and in starting the service it's httpd?



Note: I have yet to rent an Arch machine, I just try to get some background before doing so.

          • apache is the package name, and short for "Apache HTTP Server", the official name of the software.


          • httpd is the "HTTP server daemon" itself, which is provided by this package. This is what the Apache Software Foundation chose to name the daemon and related files.


          Confusingly, the Apache Software Foundation themselves also use "httpd" as a short form of the software name




          The Apache HTTP Server ("httpd") was launched in 1995
