Just to save this in case I might need it again... I applied the above patch (which for some reason didn't apply cleanly for the first hunk), then:
apt-get source apache2 sudo apt-get build-deb apache2 cd apache2-2.0.55 dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot and then after a long while: cd .. sudo dpkg -i *.deb and that pretty much worked, far as I can tell. Thanks again, Max, for the patch! -- 2.0.55-4ubuntu4 update causes svn failure https://launchpad.net/bugs/62748 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
