All, apache@ has been working diligently for the last 2yrs to realize www/apache22 as the default. Now, we are at last nearing completion. We look to pull the switch within the next month or so pending our final -exp run by portmgr@. I would like to thank everyone that helped to make this happen especially: ohauer@ (Olli Hauer) for stepping up and finishing the last mile! portmgr@ (Pav) -exp runs clement@ (Clement Laforte) for his long years of previous service Once www/apache22 becomes the default, we will actively move to deprecate and remove support for www/apache20 and related ports (they already have the notices in them). Then www/apache13* (yes, its EOL upstream, and unsupported by both then and us). http://s.apache.org/13eol Finally, we will look to import www/apache24 which just recently saw its 1st ever BETA release. If you would like to track our progress here some relevant links: o http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/147009 o http://wiki.freebsd.org/Apache Some things you should keep in mind as quoted in ports/CHANGES: 20090516: AUTHOR: pgollucci@FreeBSD.org * APACHE_COMPAT is dead! * USE_APACHE=yes is dead! * WITH_APACHE13, WITH_APACHE2, WITH_APACHE20, and WITH_APACHE22 are dead You should set USE_APACHE=13|20|22+. WITH_APACHE option can be used to conditionally include support for ANY version of Apache based on APACHE_PORT. Additionally, WITH_MODPERL2 will be replaced WITH_MODPERL. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1024D/DB9B8C1C B90B FBC3 A3A1 C71A 8E70 3F8C 75B8 8FFB DB9B 8C1C Philip M.
