Hi all,

So I spent 1 day on my memorial day weekend getting an RPM install of httpd 2.4 
building for CentOS 6. I was wondering if you guys had any interest in it? It 
doesn't follow the IUS norm as it is a /usr/local install (except for the init 
script stuff).

Basically I decided to treat it as a separate web server instead of an upgrade, 
much like nginx. This got rid of a ton of problems, including having to 
maintain my own copies/builds of all the mod_ packages. No mod_php with your 
php packages but the point of this is to use php-fpm so I don't really see 
mod_php as necessary.

So my package is called httpd-local - and I did have to make apr-local and 
apr-util-local packages as well.

I was torn between putting everything in /usr/local or in normal system 
directories. The only real problem with normal system directories were the 
binaries - I would have had to put them in subdirectories or renamed every 
binary (which seemed silly to me).

So let me know if you guys are interested. I'm willing to make a few changes if 
you are. I debated putting apr and apr-util right into the httpd-local package 
itself since apache supports building with an included apr but decided on the 
separate packages. I could have made an APR upgrade package instead of the dual 
local packages, but I'm not familiar enough with APR to know the risks of 
upgrading the system APR.

Thanks,

Josh
