In most of the Apache 2.0.XX releases, we have been using a CVS snapshot of APR and APR-Util.
I would like to make it an official policy that for the 2.2 cycle, we will never use a CVS snapshot of APR.
+1.
I believe we should still bundle APR and APR-Util with HTTPd, but we should only use the released versions of each.
This will keep it easy for end users, because APR will still be bundled in our Source Distribution.
I think this will cause more problems than it solves, I would prefer to see APR no longer bundled with httpd v2.2 onwards.
APR is now GA, and is available as a standalone package. It is also used by other packages, like subversion etc. If APR is installed as standard on a system, which APR does httpd use? The system one? The bundled one?
Getting httpd v2.1 built as an RPM is currently broken, due to the bundled APR clashing with a system APR. APR is it's own project, there is no longer any need to bundle it with httpd.
