apache2-mpm-itk for 2.2.12 and future
Hi Steinar,
Apache 2.2.12 has been released, and upstream has fixed a bug in
mpm_prefork in a different way than I did in the Debian package. Although
the itk patch applies cleanly, you may want to check that it still does
the right thing.
My patch was [1], upstream patch is [2] (there have also been other
changes in prefork.c, I think).
Also, since I have prepared two DSAs for apache2 recently, I am extremely
annoyed by the source package split (the release team feels the same way).
Therefore, I want to move apache2-mpm-itk into the apache2 source package
and add you as uploader. As the release team has just announced that they
want to freeze in December this year, I want to do this soon. There was
the idea to do this with a source format 3.0 package with two tarballs,
but it seems this won't be usable for squeeze, yet. Therefore I will do it
with a conventional source package (after all I already do something
similar with apache2-suexec-custom).
Is that OK with you?
Cheers,
Stefan
