Apologies for the cross-posting, but I feel like I'm pulling the loose
thread out of a sweater here, and it's getting annoying to see just far
things can unravel. To avoid unnecessary cross-posting, feel free to reply
to me directly &/or delete one or more of the lists I've cc'ed this to if
you think that my stab in the dark was a bit too blind.
Okay, so -- I'm trying to install RT3 on my Mac (OSX 10.2.6, build 6L60):
http://bestpractical.com/rt/index.html
RT3 depends on Perl 5.8, so I've installed that from Fink
sudo fink install perl580
RT3 also requires about half of CPAN, so I got that too.
More importantly, it requires mod_perl, but since I've upgraded to Perl
5.8, I can no longer depend on the 5.6 mod_perl as supplied by Apple, so
I've had to build & install Apache 1.3.27 & mod_perl 1.27.
So far so good. Or so it seems.
The last CPAN thing RT wants is libapreq, and here's where it all falls
apart. I'm following the installation instructions in the INSTALL.MacOSX
file that came with libapreq, namely:
$ cd ~/.cpan/build/libapreq-1.2
$ sh BUILD.sh
$ ./configure --with-apache-includes=/usr/local/apache/include
$ make
$ make test
$ sudo make install
This all seems to work fine.
The second half of the libapreq install asks me to do the following:
$ /sw/bin/perl Makefile.PL -apxs /usr/local/apache/sbin/apxs
$ make
$ make test
And that's where everything explodes:
$ make test
/sw/bin/perl -Iblib/arch -Iblib/lib \
t/TEST -clean
*** setting ulimit to allow core files
ulimit -c unlimited; t/TEST -clean
APXS (/usr/local/apache/sbin/apxs) query for SYSCONFDIR failed

I'm really not sure what to try next. That note about "query for
${foo}CONFDIR failed" got my attention, but attempting to set an
appropriate environment variable to fix that one doesn't seem to have
change anything. On the other hand, I was earlier getting a line identical
to those two saying "query for TARGET failed", so on a lark I set that var
and it *did* make the error go away. So with that in mind, I've tried
loading up the environment usefully, but it has only partly helped. Here's
part of what is currently defined:
APACHE_GROUP=www
APACHE_USER=www
LIBEXECDIR=/usr/local/apache/libexec
SYSCONFDIR=/usr/local/apache/etc

Apple's Perl5.6.0, Apache 1.3.27, and mod_perl *mumble* are all still on
the system, but I'm trying to ignore them for these purposes.
And just to validate that I *did* research this before posting this
long-winded thing, the closest discussion I could find to this was a
thread cross-posted by K Old to the mod_perl & libapreq lists at the
beginning of this month. The most similar post is this one:
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/modperl/1663875
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=apache-modperl&m=105495860320738&w=2
If this person's problem was resolved, it seems to have happened offline:
I don't see any conclusion from him/her, just a handful of suggestions
that might or might not have helped him. Based on a suggestion Randy Kobes
gave in that thread, I tried giving Makefile.PL the httpd binary, as:
% /sw/bin/perl Makefile.PL \
> -apxs /usr/local/apache/sbin/apxs \
> -httpd /usr/local/apache/sbin/httpd
No help. Nor from (and I'm really grasping here):
% /sw/bin/perl Makefile.PL \
> -apxs /usr/local/apache/sbin/apxs \
> -httpd /usr/local/apache/sbin/httpd \
> -sbindir /usr/local/apache/sbin \
> -sysconfdir /usr/local/apache/etc \
> -libexecdir /usr/local/apache/libexec \
> -target /usr/local/apache \
> APACI_ARGS="--sysconfdir=/usr/local/apache/etc,
--libexecdir=/usr/local/apache/libexec"
...and increasingly desperate variations thereof. I will plead guilty to
not even knowing if that's valid, meaningful syntax for that line -- it
seemed to [not] work just as badly as everything else I tried...
"When all you have is a hammer, everything feels like a thumb."
So. libapreq fails on make test, when running against Fink's Perl5.8, a
hand-rolled Apache 1.3.27 / mod_perl 1.27 combo running on OSX 10.2.6.
In a nutshell.
Any pointers as to why this may be happening & how it may be fixed would
be appreciated.
Thanks!
