A rough calculation is simple:
% du -s /usr/src/apache-1.3.9_dev/
10853 /usr/src/apache-1.3.9_dev
% du -s /usr/src/modperl-1.21_dev/
3195 /usr/src/modperl-1.21_dev
These are the sizes of the directories the apache and mod_perl were build
from (after running 'make' in both). Since they include sources, docs and
other stuff that aren't being installed. You need about 10M+ in size.
I don't have a perl source after 'make' handy, but it's about another
20Mb.
You will want to install other Perl modules from CPAN, so estimate at
least a few more Mbs... This last number depends on your needs.
I thought we have passed the times where additional 10Mb would be a
question of life or death... Oh well. Good luck!
