Windows installer: Installing libdb42.dll into the apache modules dir seems wrong to me.

[Max Bowsher <ma...@ukf.net>]

Installing libdb42.dll into the apache modules dir seems wrong to me.



I voted +0 on r10978, because I think that overall, the revision was an 
improvement, but wouldn't it make much more sense to install libdb42.dll 
alongside libsvn_fs_base ?

True, but some systems don't work without the dll in The Apache modules 
dir or Apache's bindir. We have had a lot of discussions about this the 
last two years here.

Yes, that would make more sense. The problem is that I often have to wait 
with commits until short time before a release's tagging (the Installer 
is the last thing to be done), another problem is that I don't have the 
slightest idea about how many people who have tried and tested the 
installer between rc and finished states.

So my priority is to make small, and practical improvements, making sure 
that the installer is as stable as possible. Maybe I will do this the 
next time if nothing goes wrong with the current installer.

Thanks for the vote and merge!  :-)
