The licensing issues are solved.

There are four open bug reports about this, three against apr-util and 
one against apache2. I don't think it is difficult to find.

Either the php or mysql package needs to be changed before we can 
activate mysql support in apr-util. The mysql change will not happen 
for lenny, but hopefully the php change will.

For details, see 
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=395959 and the bugs 
that are blocking it.

Cheers,
