Description Sebastian Pipping gentoo-dev 2015-03-26 16:12:59 UTC 
# fgrep -R AddHandler .
./files/20_mod_fastcgi.conf:AddHandler fastcgi-script fcg fcgi fpl

Please see bug #538822 for why that is a problem and for a proposed fixed.

Thank you!

I see these potential alternatives in Gentoo:

 * www-apache/mod_fcgid

 * APACHE2_MODULES=proxy_fcgi  or   www-apache/mod_proxy_fcgi

 * www-apache/mod_fastcgi_handler

As the fix is tricky, we may well just tree-clean this package?  It's not free software as I read the license, anyway.

Yeah, treecleaners are already CCed in another bug related with this package, but I still didn't have time to treeclean it :| (of course, you are free to go ahead either masking this one for removal or, even better, joining treecleaners to help us)

Thanks
