Can't install libapreq2 on Fedora 2

[Victor Dias <vg...@gmail.com>]

I need to install Mason on Fedora 2 with Apache 2.
When I try to install Mason i receive:

 * ERROR: Prerequisite Apache::Request isn't installed

I need to install the Apache2::Request (libapreq2) module for Apache
2, and when I try to install it:

build/version_check.pl failed: no version_string found in '' for 'mod_perl'.
./configure: line 1: apxs: command not found
build/version_check.pl failed: no version_string found in '' for 'apache2'.

If I pass the apxs path to the configure script works, but if I try to
install Mason again:

 * ERROR: Prerequisite Apache::Request isn't installed

Im using:
Fedora 2
httpd-2.0.51-2.9
httpd-devel-2.0.51-2.9
perl-5.8.3-18
mod_perl-1.99_12-2.1
mod_perl-devel-1.99_12-2.1
libapreq2-2.06-dev
HTML-Mason-1.3101
kernel-2.6.10-1.771_FC2

Any help?

Thanks.

Try building 2.0.2 from source.  The redhat / fedora packages have never 
been completely error free in my experience.  I've built 2.0.2 with 
libapreq 2.0.6-dev several times with no problems.

If you're using Fedora Core 4, why not just use the packages available?

[cgrau@anubis ~]$ yum list \*libapreq2 perl-HTML-Mason
Setting up repositories

libapreq2.i386                           2.06-2.fc4             extras
perl-HTML-Mason.noarch                   1.3101-3.fc4           extras
perl-libapreq2.i386                      2.06-2.fc4             extras

As for installing on FC-2, if one wants to continue using the package
management system instead of compiling from source, well, one can do
both.  I recommend grabbing the source packages from FC-5 (development)
and building them on FC-2.  It should work fairly well.  I managed to do
it on Red Hat Linux 9 systems with minimal hassle.

I did the same install on Fedora 4 with mod_perl-2.0.1-1.fc4.

cd libapreq2-2.06-dev
perl Makefile.PL --with-apache2-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs
make

receive:

How can I install Mason without the Apache::Request dependency?
I want to try the CGI mode now.
The recomendation is to use CGI mode or modperl? What is better?

Any help?

You need a newer mod_perl.  The latest is 2.0.2.
