Bug 410453 – www-apache/mod_perl does not build against www-servers/apache2-2.4.1-r2

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Sean McGovern 2012-04-01 17:22:17 UTC]

The following 2 modules current do not build against the recently updated apache2 ebuild.

At the very least, /usr/sbin/apxs is missing execute bits -- but even when these are manually restored the build still fails.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge apache2
2. emerge mod_perl or mod_wsgi


Actual Results:  
Ebuilds fail.

Expected Results:  
Ebuilds should succeed.

something similar with mod_python, mod_geoip2 and i think even php 5.3.10-r2 (dont remember exactly and cant check since i reverted back to 2.2.22)

[Comment 2 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) 2012-04-02 02:44:56 UTC]

Please file a separate bug for www-apache/mod_wsgi.

[Comment 3 Martin Jansa 2012-04-03 16:00:19 UTC]

I've tried to build mod_perl from svn trunk and from httpd24 branch and it's still depending on removed remote_ip and remote_addr..

See this thread for details
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/perl-modperl/201203.mbox/%3CCAJiMZ97mkhKe9OQX9Rm9doFn9GDcRf8U3ASoHpJUVpo=[e-mail]%3E

So maybe apache-2.4* should be masked a bit longer...

I've built it successfully with couple of dirty hacks and apache-backuppc works for me.. so I'll attach my patches here if someone finds them usefull...

[Comment 12 Martin Jansa 2012-06-07 12:30:08 UTC]

All patches except first one (mod_perl-2.0.5-r1302463.patch) still do apply to newly added mod_perl-2.0.7 and provide working mod_perl for apache-2.4 (still using it mostly for apache-backuppc)

[Comment 13 Gregg Casillo 2013-02-25 18:57:24 UTC]

Any updates on any mod_perl ebuild that will build with the latest apache ebuilds? I'm concerned about falling behind with apache versions, and I need mod_perl for my work. Thanks.

[Comment 14 Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto (RETIRED) 2013-08-12 22:12:06 UTC]

I've added mod_perl-2.0.8 to my overlay. I got it working with apache-2.4 based on the debian work and thanks to Gregor Herrmann <[e-mail]>.

[Comment 15 Sean McGovern 2013-10-15 17:09:21 UTC]

I don't use Apache on Gentoo anymore, so I don't need to track this bug. Can it be reassigned?

You're the reporter, not the assignee. The reporter cannot be changed, sorry.

[Comment 17 Michael Orlitzky 2014-05-28 03:11:19 UTC]

Nobody ever opened another bug for mod_wsgi; for what it's worth, that was fixed with a version bump in bug #510938.

[Comment 18 Sergiy Borodych 2014-06-02 07:23:33 UTC]

There is no such version (mod_perl-2.0.5) in portage anymore. Vote for close.

[Comment 19 Dan Goodliffe 2014-06-02 07:29:18 UTC]

I think this issue persists with 2.0.8 in the main portage tree.
I've been using the ebuild from Jorge's overlay in comment 14 for some time now.

[Comment 20 Sergiy Borodych 2014-06-02 07:42:52 UTC]

Seems like I was wrong.
Even in ebuild still present:
 DEPEND="<www-servers/apache-2.4

Anything blocking this from being moved to the tree?

[Comment 22 Tomáš Mózes 2014-11-12 08:13:41 UTC]

Tested with apache 2.4.10 and perl 5.20.

Where are this patches coming from? Are the ones from this bug? (look to be for 2.0.5)

I have seen most distributions are relying on Debian packages for this... and they have now a 2.0.9 snapshot

Yes

[Comment 25 Pacho Ramos 2014-12-16 14:33:51 UTC]

@idl0r, what option do you think is better? The Debian snapshot or applying that two patches?
