Yes. As time permits :-( koha is currently "low priority" for me.

So lets say: complex setup ;-)

I think this was a typo on my side. I typed perl-GD and not perl-GB - so 
this failure should be fixed with the next rebuild.

Yes. Thats a way to go. But we can also try to use the <Define> 
directive in apache to get rid of the problem.
So the example koha-example.conf file in /etc/apache2/conf.d/ can 
contain:
--------------------------[snip]
<IfDefine KOHA>
[...other stuff here...]
[...would be great if you can send me your configuration file for koha, 
btw]
</IfDefine>
--------------------------[snap]
So your vhost just should start with "httpd -DKOHA" and everythink 
should work as expected.

Already available. Perhaps not on your mirror?

Thanks for this information. I'll see what package can handle this....
