I've put my opinion at the top of the bug: for apache 1.3, this is a
help, as:
- it is a bug
- but for apache 1.3, upstream won't do the work of fixing it.
- For the Debian apache maintainers, this is understandably not
something they will spend much time on backporting the fix to
apache1.3, as it is still a minor bug, and might be tricky to backport
due to changes 1.3 vs 2
- But if somebody else decides to backport it, well, I guess apache
maintainers would accept the patch.
- So, tagging as help, by which you indicate you're not going to fix
this on your own. I considered 'wontfix', but this isn't a case where
apache maintainters are not not* willing to fix it, but they are just
not able to do so in reasonable time. Thus, help.
* intentional double negotiation
I assume if patches are supplied, it will be fixed. For the record, this
bug is too minor for me to spend too much time on, so I'm not going to
do it, and I'm happy leaving this bug open for apache 1.3 until somebody
decides to fix it (or not), especially since apache 2 will be fixed.
