What happened with Apache2::Reload in mod_perl-2.0.4?
Hi mod_perl maintainers,
Thank you for releasing mod_perl 2.0.4.
I was wondering what happened to Apache2::Reload? Was it missed in
packaging for the upload to CPAN? If so then there may be other files
missing too.
Regards,
Niels

Separate is nice. Smaller packages, smaller repository, possibly
different people commiting, one bug doesn't require release / rebuild
of everything.

BTW, currently the Apache::Test version in 2.0.4 is 1.31, while the
latest one on CPAN is 1.30.
This is a bit of a PITA while packaging. I want to package both mp2
and the latest Apache::Test; preferably separately (vserver users
whine a lot when having to install something they don't need). So,
both apache-mod_perl and perl-Apache-Test packages. Now, I could switch
between the CPAN version and bundled version of Apache::Test (depending
on which one is later at the moment), but it's heavily annoying...

And as the latest Release Manager, I must say that having to release 3
extra CPAN modules along with each mp2 releases is going to be a PITA.
http://svn.apache.org/[...]/Apache-Test/tags/1.31
THat way, 2 things happen. First, we can always release mod_perl, without
having to worry about these external packages. We know what we are bundling
is exactly the same stuff that is _already_ on CPAN, great. Second, mod_perl
itself is protected from spurious failures caused by changes in any of these
modules before they are released.
The only negative is that if a change is made to say Apache-Test to fix a
problem mod_perl needs/wants, it complicates things a little. I make the
fix in A-T, making sure it fixes mod_perl's problem. If sure of that,
I proceed to release A-T. Once released, I can now test mod_perl against
this new A-T by locally changing the tag the svn:external is pointing to,
and if it solves to problem and doesn't create new ones, checkin the new
external definition.
I've dealt with 3rd packages in this way plenty, and it works.
Anyhting terribly obvious I am missing here ?

That's on the radar for 2.0.5, along with Apache::SizeLimit, to bundle
using svn:external. Phillip Gollucci brought this up about a month ago
or so, and I started to move on it but Gozer brought up a number of
things that had to be done to make this happen and the works with 5.10
release was pressing at that point.
Don't worry, I won't forget about it :)

I can't remember if I knew this or not, but we probably ought to treat
this like Apache-Test: keep bundling it with releases _and_ maintain
something separate on CPAN.
so I guess this means a mp2 release should (going forward) include _and_
imply a new release of
o mp2
o Apache-Test
o Apache-Reload
