Description W-Mark Kubacki 2006-07-13 08:03:21 UTC

Say, you have modified /etc/apache2/apache2-builtin-mods to have mod_alias.c compiled in statically:
   mod_alias static

Then an "emerge apache" will result in apache without mod_alias.c - it won't neither be build statically nor as (dynamic) module.

(No error nor warning appears to inform the user about this.)

If you had a former installation of apache-2.0.58 in which this was not broken, this will result in malfunction of one's webserver.

This is only true if /etc/apache2 is not readably by user "portage".
