That's not entirely true. Debian Sarge (stable) and Ubuntu Hoary both include packages for Apache 1.3.33 and Apache2 (2.0.54?). Sarge has a mod_perl2 package but it's based on a late 2.0RC, though it is post-rename, IIRC.
Actually, the Debian Stable aka Sarge has 1.999.21-1 which is PRE-rename, and effectively useless, and libapreq2 - never made it into Debian Stable at all.
The good news is that with the three year release cycle having just started again, we might have a stable mod_perl2 by end 2008! :o
I hear rumours that backports.org might do something in the near future for libapache2-mod-perl, but haven't heard anything about libapreq2.
At the moment, for Debian Stable, as Perrin harkens, roll-your-own time! Regards, Jeff
