Ralf, this seems to be a quite common problem (at least for those of us on
FreeBSD). Adding modules to Apache forces one out of the ports system either
because the combined port doesn't exist, or the seperate ports are "mildly"
incompatable (missing or differring config items, conflicting patches, etc).
Is it possible that there exits a mod_* port template for FreeBSD that one can
use to create a coherent combined port from the base apache port? My last
experience building Apache, mod_ssl, mod_php3, mod_frontpage, mod_perl insures
that my next experience will not be very soon :) Perhaps you have overcome
this using an approach that includes procedures obvious to you but not so
obvious for those of us trying to catch up with your release stream :)
My apologies for off topic whinging in advance and many thanks of course,
Rick Saltzman
