Description seather 2004-08-13 06:33:49 UTC

After emerging mod_watch, the post-configuration tells you to:
Execute "ebuild /usr/portage/net-www/mod_watch-4.03/mod_watch-4.03.ebuild config"
to have your apache.conf auto-updated for use with the module.

However, the file does not exist. When trying /usr/portage/net-www/mod_watch/mod_watch-4.03.ebuild config
instead, it doesn't find /usr/sbin/apacheaddmod because apacheaddmod does not exist (This is with apache2)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge apache
2.emerge mod_watch
3.ebuild /usr/portage/net-www/mod_watch/mod_watch-4.03.ebuild config (following instructions)

Actual Results:  
/usr/sbin/ebuild.sh: line 52: //usr/sbin/apacheaddmod: No such file or directory

Expected Results:  
Update apache2.conf accordingly.

This is done with apache version 2.

according to others ebuilds,apache2 modules installation do no update apache2.conf.

the trouble come from the parts pkg_postinst() and pkg_config() which should not be there.

Following magnet's advice, I've removed the pkg_config() and pkg_postinst() sections of the ebuild.  These changes should appear on your local rsync mirror in about an hour.  As the ebuild should already have installed mod_watch correctly, I haven't changed the version number on the ebuild.

Please test, and let me know how you get on.

Best regards,
Stu
