Hello I don't know how to handle the following situation:
I'm creating a package for the Perl module Apache::Request (in libapreq). This module requires /usr/bin/apxs so that it can find the header files (from apache-dev) at build time. All works well if you have installed apache and libapache-mod-perl (and apache-dev, of course). But if apache-perl is installed (instead of apache and libapache-mod-perl), libapache-request-perl can't be built because it can't find /usr/bin/apxs. libapache-mod-perl provides the path to /usr/bin/apxs in Apache::MyConfig, but apache-perl doesn't. So libapache-request-perl can be built if apache and lib-apache-mod-perl are installed, but not if apache-perl is installed instead. Of course I could just make libapache-request-perl bild-depend on apache and libapache-mod-perl. But the problem is that the package apache-perl provides apache and libapache-mod-perl itself! So the build-depends of libapache-request-perl would be satisfied. How can I handle this situation? Daniel -- Say NO to HTML in mail and news.
