[opensuse-factory] RFC: apache2 upcoming changes
Hi: This week, I have been working giving apache2 packages some love, in particular upgrading to version 2.4. The upgrade part is done but I am now working on implementing major changes in the way it is distributed and packaged. If there are no objections it will go as follow. 1. Support for Building apache in: * Non SUSE Distros * Versions older than SLE 11 SP2 Will go away. 2, Subpackages : apache2-prefork apache2-itk apache2-worker Will go away. 2.4 supports providing MPMs as DSOs, so you can switching between prefork/itk/worker just by using a2enmod a2insmod etc.. just if they were a regular apache module. MPMs do not use more than 40k disk space, it is complete non-sense to keep the complexity of maintaining pre/post/setup scripts of subpackages around. Care has/will been taking in preserving package-side upgrade paths but trouble may arise, if so, please fill bug reports and assign them to me.

I will fix the packages that fail due to build infrastructure changes. I expect maintainers to fix those that fail to build due to API changes though. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

I reverted apache2 in factory for now. I created openSUSE:Factory:Staging:Apache2 with you as maintainer for checking and fixing all packages dependent on apache2. Of course you can still rely on the maintainers of said packages, but you're going to be responsible to tell them about the failures.
