Originally I installed apache2-src from unstable and tried to build directly; that's how I ran into this bug. I decided instead to backport apache2, apr and apr-util. It only takes a few minutes since the build-dependencies are all available in either sarge or on http://backports.org/. I think the best way to solve this would be to get the apache2-src package to include a minimal debian/control file including apache2's build-dependencies. Then apache2-mpm-itk could simply call dpkg-checkbuilddeps during the package build process. OTOH, the ITK MPM is not very well known or highly demanded, and Etch will be out soon making this bug obsolete, so feel free to tag as wontfix--I'm sure anyone else brave enough to try to backport it to sarge will also be clever enough to search the BTS if they run into problems. :) -- Sam Morris http://robots.org.uk/ PGP key id 1024D/5EA01078 3412 EA18 1277 354B 991B C869 B219 7FDB 5EA0 1078
