Bugzilla Bug 127781

mod_auth_mysql does currently not work with Apache 2.2.x. mod_authn_dbd is its
successor.

Unfortunately there is no option in current Apache 2.2.x ebuilds (although
masked) to compile Apache with support for MySQL. 

Please, include support for MySQL in dev-libs/apr-util and/or net/www/apache.

apr-util-1.2.6.ebuild

APR-Util ebuild with MySQL support. The line with wget is rather an ugly hack.

apr-1.2.6.ebuild

To be complete, a copy of apr-1.2.2 named apr-1.2.6.

When I started working on putting apr 1.2 into the tree, I tested this. I
couldn't get MySQL to work correctly (IIRC it wouldn't even compile). Does
mysql support actually *work* for you?

I put the mysql support aside to get apache 2.2 in the tree. I may look into
this further at some point, but it may be awhile.

It does compile with the above ebuilds. (Please see
http://svn.ossdl.de/all/ossdl/ for recent ones.)

Unfortunately, when activating "mysql" or "sqlite3" (I did not test plain
"sqlite", yet) as DBDriver Apache throws SEGFAULTs. 
Someone has already reported this to Apache's mailing lists:

I don't think we're changing apr/apr-util just now to support apr_dbd_mysql.
Maybe we'll look at it once apache-2.2 is stable.

mysql support added to apr-util-1.2.8-r1 ...

... therefore resolved fixed
