I have a question related to this: Why the param "MP_INST_APACHE2="? It would be good to be able to install apache in a user defined location, rather than only one location possible. This makes upgrades a bit risky. I maybe wrong, as documentation for apache2 is nowhere as clear as for apache 1.3*.
