IIRC the reason we needed 2.0.46 in apreq was apxs- our current build system relies on apr/apu path info coming from apxs, and it wasn't until 2.0.46 that apxs supplied it (correctly). If there's a compelling reason to prefer 2.0.47 for modperl (like dropping the back-compat code for apr), I say go for it. -- Joe Schaefer --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
