So we've been compiling and improving the code, but the build/
install status
is -worse- than httpd-2.0, ergo this is not "the best version of
apache now
available" and is -not- ready for GA.
I just built from scratch using the tarball and the same options
that any typical user would set: i.e.,
./configure --prefix=/dist/test22 --enable-modules=all
Zero problems.
I don't understand what you are talking about -- developers don't
run ./buildconf on the source package. Only we do that. Even after
I do a
make extraclean
./buildconf
./configure --prefix=/dist/test22 --enable-modules=most
again I have zero problems. The included versions of apr and apr-util
are used in all of my tests. I've never installed apr-1.x in the OS
system libraries. Why would anyone outside this list do that?
Those hyper to release, why not make it usable by Joe anybody
instead of only
httpd-dev hacker who's used to 'fudging the build'?
Whatever problem you are encountering, please fix it on trunk.
I see no evidence that it will cause people outside the APR core
development group any grief for httpd-2.2, and even then a workaround
can be described on the website.
