Description Jaco Kroon 2004-02-08 11:12:35 UTC 
Having apache2 installed should automatically set the apache2 use flag.  See bug 39097 for more details and a good example of why this should be the case.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
As an example, emerge apache2, make sure that apache2 are not explicitly mentioned in the USE="..." line of /etc/make.conf and attempt to emerge subversion-0.37.

Comment 1 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2004-02-08 12:28:54 UTC 
no your suggested behaviour is quite simply wrong.
Read the description of what the apache2 use flag does:
apache2 - Chooses Apache2 support when a package supports both Apache1 and Apache2

Your behavior there would break the system for those that want to use both apache1 and apache2.

take this up with the subversion people instead.
Comment 2 Jaco Kroon 2004-03-09 11:18:21 UTC 
Closing, I'm not getting what I want to hear here or from subversion.  BUt I suspect you're right, the problem is probably with subversion not apache2.
