The latest Red Hat comes with Apache 2 (because Apache 2 is quite stable). Unfortunatly mod_perl 2.0 is /not/ that finished (Sorry Stas..). But because Red Hat wants to provide mod_perl to its Users, they included the Beta Version in their distro.

You don't need perl-blead (which is probably Stas' install of the latest unstable Perl version) This will do the same job: % perl -Mmod-perl -le 'print mod_perl->VERSION' -- #!/usr/bin/perl http://domm.zsi.at for(ref bless{},just'another'perl'hacker){s-:+-$"-g&&print$_.$/}
