There is no Apache.pm in mp2. You probably wanted to say:

Right. In fact, it should probably be
requires => { 'mod_perl' => '1.0',
in the MP1 example, and
requires => { 'mod_perl' => '1.99',
in the MP2 example, yes?
Assuming this is for the benefit of CPAN/CPANPLUS to install dependencies, doesn't this run into a couple of problems that, in particular, Stas has raised: - CPAN doesn't yet support multiple module versions, only the latest (which currently is mp1, as mp2 is marked as a development version); - if someone had mp2 installed in an Apache2/ subdirectory, CPAN/CPANPLUS wouldn't see it unless somehow 'use Apache2' was invoked to adjust @INC;
What about requiring 'Apache' for mp1-related modules (since 'Apache' doesn't exist within mp2), and for mp2 modules, requiring 'Apache2' (which doesn't exist within mp1)?
It won't work since the version number lives in the package mod_perl. and most likely you'd want to require a minimal version at some point.
