Don't do that; instead, have a separate RPM that just contains mod_jk
and maybe a script to install it on top of an existing Apache httpd RPM
install.

Forgive my skepticism, but are you building RPMs for a particular distro
or will there be yet another set of packaged versions of Tomcat-related
software out there that does not work properly.

Stupid question: is that full path correct?

Ideally, the connector should be built on the machine that will be
running it. Is it acceptable to create an RPM that actually builds the
module instead of installing a previously-built binary? It takes only a
few seconds to build mod_jk from source. Since mod_jk requires Apache
httpd to be installed, installing such an RPM would require that apxs be
available in a known location, right?
