The question is; which forks are we accommodating? What scope? .1% of installed userbase? (whoops - better restore win9x quick!) Seriously, if someone is using the fork, and grabbing packages, they just grab the mod_ftp package, so no big deal. Totally cool with adding a note to README-FTP about the APXS=apxs2 trick for those affected. I'm not disagreeing that it's potentially stupid for us to ship 'apxs'. I'm disagreeing that the appropriate place to fix conventions is here. And if folks don't want to play in such an open ecosystem, there is next to nothing we are going to fix in this, but we don't have to become party to perpetuating it. Watching the good folks at users@, #httpd etc tear their hair out at vendor stupidity or cleverness is not 'fun'.
