www-apache/mod_python crashes apache when apache is configured using mod_cache and mod_python script uses pysqlite functions, and python uses internal pysqlite library. Further references: http://oss.itsystementwicklung.de/trac/pysqlite/ticket/146 dev-lang/python, when built with USE=sqlite uses bundled pysqlite-2.3.2, which contains this bug. When system has dev-python/pysqlite-2.5.5 installed, everything works OK. Page above says that versions 2.3.3 should work too, but I've never checked this. In my case, the problem is triggered with www-apps/trac, but this problem seems to be specific to apache+mod_python, when using pysqlite. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge apache with APACHE2_MODULES containing "proxy" 2. emerge mod_python and make sure dev-python/pysqlite is not installed 3. enable -DPROXY -DPYTHON in /etc/conf.d/apache2 4. make sure dev-python/pysqlite is not installed 5. install and setup www-apps/trac 6. open http://vhost/trac in browser, and watch apache2 error_log: Actual Results: [Tue Jul 28 18:00:22 2009] [notice] child pid 8845 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) Expected Results: Show trac main page. The problem can be easily solved by installing recent pysqlite package, so it's probably good to add runtime dependency on '>=dev-python/pysqlite-2.3.3' when using sqlite use-flag.
Created attachment 199485 [details, diff] adds dependency on >=dev-python/pysqlite-2.3.3 if sqlite useflag enabled.

mod_python should not get a sqlite use flag just for DEPEND issues. instead pysqlite should block mod_python
I removed older versions of dev-python/pysqlite:2.
