Re: which apr-util is really "desired" for the 2.2.X branch

[Michael Felt <ma...@gmail.com>]

Nod - about where APR is going - dev@apr..., "new threads!"

this was about what to use with httpd today. And you answered that, if I
understood correctly - package both httpd 2.2.X and httpd 2.4.X with
apr-1.4.6 and apr-util-1.4.1 - because these "exist" officially.

Many thanks!

yep - though with 2.2.x you dont have to care at all since it ships with 
already with "desired" APR / APU (see below ./srclib); and even more 
nice is you can just call configure with --with-included-apr to use them ;-)
for 2.4.x we did in the past provide httpd-2.4.x-deps tarballs which 
contain APR / APU, see:
http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/

Gün.
