I have serious misgivings about the particular approach taken here, in SRU or otherwise. Why does mod-security.load need to hard-code libxml2.so.2 *at all*? Isn't that why DSOs are dynamically linked to their dependent libraries (which mod_security2.so is)? And why is libxml2.so.2 being special-cased here, when mod_security2.so is also linked against liblua5.1.so.0? Did anyone try to fix this by just removing the LoadFile line completely? That would be a much safer fix than SRUing the core of apache2, and would probably fix the problem that this SRU seems to be stalled waiting for indeterminate regression testing of "corner cases".
A naive test here of commenting out this 'LoadFile' line shows that the apache config validates, and apache2-mpm-prefork starts without any problems. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/988819 Title: [SRU] wrong path to libxml2.so.2 in mod_security - broken by multiarch enabled libraries To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apache2/+bug/988819/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
