I cannot find any evidence that this is actually broken. It doesn't appear to use any of the mod_perl APIs broken by Apache 2.4, and when I install it and test it as best I can it still appears to work perfectly well. The only thing that I see that ought to be improved is that it should now build-depend on apache2-dev rather than on apache2-threaded-dev | apache2-prefork-dev, and that the build-dependency on apache2 itself appears to be unnecessary. However, none of these actually prevent it from building with Apache 2.4 in unstable (the apache2-threaded-dev | apache2-prefork-dev build-dependencies are unversioned, so the Provides in apache2-dev is good enough), and there's no reason for them to block Apache 2.4 entering testing. Applying the following patch should close this out. diff -Nru libcgi-application-dispatch-perl-3.12/debian/changelog libcgi-application-dispatch-perl-3.12/debian/changelog --- libcgi-application-dispatch-perl-3.12/debian/changelog 2012-11-04 13:35:09.000000000 +0000 +++ libcgi-application-dispatch-perl-3.12/debian/changelog 2013-07-10 22:27:18.000000000 +0100 @@ -1,3 +1,10 @@ +libcgi-application-dispatch-perl (3.12-1.1) UNRELEASED; urgency=low + + * Non-maintainer upload. + * Update build-dependencies for Apache 2.4 (closes: #666833). + + -- Colin Watson <cjwat...@debian.org> Wed, 10 Jul 2013 22:27:06 +0100 + libcgi-application-dispatch-perl (3.12-1) unstable; urgency=low [ gregor herrmann ] diff -Nru libcgi-application-dispatch-perl-3.12/debian/control libcgi-application-dispatch-perl-3.12/debian/control --- libcgi-application-dispatch-perl-3.12/debian/control 2012-11-04 13:35:09.000000000 +0000 +++ libcgi-application-dispatch-perl-3.12/debian/control 2013-07-10 22:27:02.000000000 +0100 @@ -5,8 +5,7 @@ Xavier Guimard <x.guim...@free.fr> Section: perl Priority: optional -Build-Depends: apache2, - apache2-threaded-dev | apache2-prefork-dev, +Build-Depends: apache2-dev, debhelper (>= 8), libapache2-mod-perl2, libcgi-application-perl (>= 4.50), Thanks, -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@debian.org] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
