Me thinking that it's nice to have all the headers in the same location (we have the ap_ and apr_ headers there already) and we don't need to mess with Apache2 prefixes here. The potential drawback that I could see is the various packaging approaches which will have to know where apache is installed.

That, and what if apache is upgraded/reinstalled and the content of the
destination include directory is whiped+reinstalled ?
You still need to have to install mod_perl.so there (don't have to, but that's where we currently install to), so if you reinstall things by removing the apache tree, you have to reinstall mod_perl anyways.

Well, in my case, I always do

$> perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=$BASE/mod_perl/1.27/

For example. That way all mod_perl stuff is in its own directory. Not in
the perl tree, not in the apache tree (except for libperl.so).

But I seriously have no idea what's the most common thing for users to
do.

Perhaps mod_perl.so should be installed under the perl tree as well. Don't know if it's a good idea.

If anywhere, I think mod_perl.is better of in apache_dir.
In any case, if we install the headers under the perl tree, shouldn't we copy the apache headers there as well? Perhaps Doug will pop up...
