mod-auth-kerb is a terrific Apache module to authenticate connections

I repackaged mod-auth-kerb for Apache2 & added some more
documentation:
http://cgi.sfu.ca/~jdbates/moin/moin.cgi/KerberosApacheModule
Is there a reason this shouldn't be built from the same source package
as
the existing libapache-mod-auth-kerb package?
That would be ideal.
I find the Debian build system a bit awkward at recompiling source
packages for multiple binary packages; sometimes packages' "install"
rules must be run before other packages' "build" rules; sometimes
packages have conflicting build-depends. Maybe this needs to be
documented somewhere?
Happily, Ghe Rivero has already written a patch for
libapache-mod-auth-kerb to recompile both libapache-m-a-k &
libapache2-m-a-k (#264231). I integrated my work with Ghe's solution &
rebuilt this package
(http://cgi.sfu.ca/~jdbates/moin/moin.cgi/KerberosApacheModule)
Hopefully Sam - the libapache-mod-auth-kerb maintainer - or another
Debian Developer with more time, can bring our changes into the
official distribution?
Thanks Steve!
