Bug#503184: libapache2-mod-auth-shadow

[Bruno De Fraine <bruno@defraine.net>]

Hello Devrim,

You should be able to compile the package yourself with the following  
commands:

# Download sources from the Ubuntu archive
wget "http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/liba/libapache2-mod-auth-shadow/libapache2-mod-auth-shadow_2.1.orig.tar.gz 
"
wget "http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/liba/libapache2-mod-auth-shadow/libapache2-mod-auth-shadow_2.1-2.diff.gz 
"

# Unpack the sources
tar -zxvf libapache2-mod-auth-shadow_2.1.orig.tar.gz
zcat libapache2-mod-auth-shadow_2.1-2.diff.gz | patch -p0

# Install all the build dependencies
sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev debhelper devscripts fakeroot
sudo apt-get install dpatch apache2-threaded-dev

# Step into the directory and build
cd libapache2-mod-auth-shadow-2.1/
debuild -us -uc
cd ..

# Install the package
sudo dpkg -i libapache2-mod-auth-shadow_2.1-2_i386.deb


Best regards,
Bruno
