Another reason why just dying because of modules in that directory is a bad idea, IMO... sorry but i don't understand.. related to what? If you are talking about #226833 it is pending right now. Fabio -- user fajita: step one fajita Whatever the problem, step one is always to look in the error log. user fajita: step two fajita When in danger or in doubt, step two is to scream and shout.

Basically, yes. If I install a 3rd party module that uses apxs, it will install in /usr/lib/apache/1.3, and presumably everything will be working ok untill I try and upgrade and *bang*, my previously functional installation is broken. I'm not sure what the 'solution' to this bug is, but if you consider the number of bug reports that have arrived to date and do some extrapolation to the number of stable users who will hit this on upgrade, to me it seems evident that another solution is necessary. I wish I were able to suggest something that would make everyone happy, but I don't have all the world's answers, only some of them;-) -- David N.

Another fix instead is on the way to generate .info files from apxs (#228077) but it is still under testing and it will not make it for this release Oh, great! Well that makes me happy then:-) Thanks! -- David N.
