Hi, I typically install apache from source, then recompill with apaci so that I could add optional modules such as mod_perl, mod_auth etc. With redhat what I typically do/did was compile with a special --prefix, and possibly --exec-prefix and set aside any custom packages in my own spot (/opt/stow/apache-x.yy), then use GNU stow to symlink the compiled build (after I did a "make install") to a "normal" spot in the $PATH. This kept things (mostly) neatly divided between rpm binaries, and the source based install.
Since Gentoo is a source based distro, is there any reason to do things differently? If so, how? Any links to read up on? Allan __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
