Hmmm, I thought I'd tried that already.
No wait, I remember why I didn't. I specifically need the web server to
be apache. (boa, roxen etc. also provide httpd.) perhaps the apache
variants should provide the virtual package apache too?
Then again maybe the mod-perl dependency will filter out all but apache
variants.
Ok, this seems to be my best best for now. Thanks
