    You know, I avoided the RPM of apache when I built my webserver, instead choosing to download it and compile 2.0 from source, and get it working myself. Which I did. Having done it once, I know it pretty well now, and it took me five minutes to go from 2.0.45 to 2.0.48 after seeing this story, having saved my ./configure in an executable file. I ran that, make, make install, copy the conf files and the resin .so, test it, and switch the symbolic link that the sys V script goes to.

    So. Untinstall the deb, download it, compile it, install it, and get it working. It's no harder to configure, and you're free of package tyranny.
