thanks… i did do ap-modsecure2. the message i posted was from that attempt to build it from pkgsrc/security/ap-modsecure2
the issues was that it didn't want to build with the currently installed pkgs. so i had to upgrade everything - including apache itself - to actually use this single module. i could have probably build it myself from source but i know mod_security needs quite a few things to compile. so ended up updating the whole pkgsrc and went from their. it hurt a little bit… On Sun, Mar 8, 2015 at 7:10 PM, Matthias Scheler <t...@zhadum.org.uk> wrote: > On Sun, Mar 08, 2015 at 02:20:34PM -0400, el kalin wrote: > > i have an apache 2.4 build from prksrc on an netbsd 6.0 and now trying to > > add mod_secure to it. every time i try to add it via pkg_add or make > > install i get: > > > > "A different version of apache-2.2.27 is already installed: > apache-2.4.3nb1" > > > > how does that make sense? > > The "ap-modsecure" package doesn't support Apache 2.4.x because > "mod_secure" version 1.x doesn't compile with that version of Apache. > As a result it automatically pulls in apache-2.2.27 as a dependence > because apache-2.4.3nb1 cannot be used.
