When you asked if it would be useful (yes, I have read that email), I
wasn't on the list as I hadn't ried to install mod_perl for a long time.
I guess if you ask the list if it would be useful to have a section
summarising what has just been discussed, they'll tell you "No, we know
that now". The folks who *will* find it useful are the ones who don't
know they'll find it useful and aren't reading the list.

Well, they don't because there is the whole issue of the location of the
libaprutil.so library which was Darryl's problem (and one that I share
too). Is that fixed as well in the next release?

Absolutely.
