Hmmm.  No one has actually answered the question, although I am getting
all kinds of advice...  (-; ...

Thanks for that information, Stas.

I'll take that to mean 'yes', I do have mod_perl 2.0 (although, per my
previous post of my `strings /usr/lib/httpd/modules/mod_perl.so` output,
my version is (I guess) 1.99_05-dev, which, you have to admit, does not
look like '2.0'.

Please note, though, one of my goals in life is to rely on my software
providers to do the work of providing me with a stable, tested,
updatable OS and associated tools.  If I download 'out of band' updates,
then I can no longer rely on Red Hat's network update tool, for example.

With all due respect for your fine work, which is awesome, there are
application developers such as myself out there who simply don't have
time to track the bleeding edge except when absolutely forced to do so
(which sometimes does happen).
  
My heuristic is that I intentionally stay behind the curve.  I don't use
Oracle 9 yet, for example.

My current need for mod_perl 2.0 is not critical, so I will give it
another year or so before I dig in and make the (substantial) effort of
coverting entirely to it.

Bummer, I don't have perl-blead and there are only 17 references to it
in the entire history of Dejanews, none that seem to point to a
download...

[EMAIL PROTECTED] httpd]# perl-blead -MApache2 -Mmod_perl -le 'print
mod_perl->VERSION'
bash: perl-blead: command not found
[EMAIL PROTECTED] httpd]# 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] httpd]# whereis perl-blead
perl-blead:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] httpd]# locate perl-blead


I could take time to find/download perl-blead, but hey, gotta go earn
some money!  (-;  Outta here for now.
