I just installed apache-2.0.52-r1. Apparently, a manual comes with it, and in /var/www/localhost/htdocs, you'll find a symlink which is: manual -> /usr/share/doc/apache-2.0.52-r1/manual No matter what I did to the config files (adding FollowSymLinks, etc), I could not pull up the manual. That's because the config file /etc/apache2/conf/modules.d/00_apache_manual.conf (a) overrides the symlink and (b) is out of date. It points to /usr/share/doc/apache-2.0.50/manual which is wrong. Just to be sure, I ran etc-update, but it didn't show any updates to that config file. Not surprising since I JUST installed it. After correcting 00_apache_manual.conf, I was able to view the manual. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
this is fixed in the apache herds overlay
In addition could easily fixed by replacing MANUAL_VERSION with PV in the ebuild ?
please try the new apache ebuilds currently hard masked in portage, they should solve this issue. Upgrade Instructions: --------------------- After we have refreshed the packages on 8th Jan, to upgrade you will need to do the following. If you do not want to install masked/unstable packages on your machine(s), these ebuilds will be unmasked and marked stable as soon as we have determined that everything is working properly. - unmask all needed packages (using /etc/portage/package.unmask and /etc/portage/package.keywords) - emerge -uav world With this update, we are bringing some changes to the Apache configuration: - /etc/apache{,2}/conf is moving to be /etc/apache{,2} - new httpd.conf replaces commonapache{,2}.conf and apache{,2}.conf files - /etc/apache{,2}/conf/vhosts is moving to be /etc/apache{,2}/vhosts.d After installing this update, you will need to manually migrate any changes you've made to your existing configuration files into the new configuration files. See http://dev.gentoo.org/~vericgar/package-refresh.txt
Long since fixed, closing.
