When I upgraded system today, I got the following message: WARNING: One or more updates have been skipped due to a dependency conflict: www-servers/apache:2 (www-servers/apache-2.4.4::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) conflicts with <www-servers/apache-2.4 required by (www-apache/mod_perl-2.0.7::gentoo, installed)
This can be claimed as fixed as apache-2.4 is not ready for stable, and has been downgraded again. Sorry!
