Martin: I'll let others respond to the thread, but I'd just like to point out that there is a fallback - the libs tarball which will include the currently shipped libraries in our tree. So we just need to add some intelligence into our configure/build system to auto-detect this...

If we go that way, what about: RHEL4/5 CentOs SLES FC5 Ubuntu ??? and the Mandriva stuff is completely outdated. I am just wondering whether splitting of apr/expat/libconfuse is really a good thing. Looking a bit broader at www.rpmfind.net: apr/apr-devel: varies from 0.9.4 to 0.9.6 for RedHat and Mdk. No SuSE. In 3.0.3 we moved from 0.9.5 to 0.9.7, because that fixed bz #87. Is 0.9.6 enough? I don't know and I do not really want to test it. So that means we require 0.9.7 which is not available anywhere out of the box. expat/expat-devel: varies from 1.95.1 to 1.95.8 for a lot of distros. Seems we can safely assume its availability everywhere. libconfuse: old version for MDK and now 2.5 for FC4 :-) Not a very wide coverage. Hmm. Not really convinced.
