Re: Problems building httpd-2.4.26 with apr-1.6.2 and apr-util-1.6.0

Hi William,

 thanks. Installing "libexpat-devel-2.0.1-88.26.1" on this SLES11 system made httpd build again. Just that I do not like to rely on that kind of stuff. The old behavior of apr-util-1.5.4 was just more convenient :-( Actually never made me realize that "libexpat" is needed.

Cheers
Martin

Note this shouldn't be necessary once you've installed libexpat
(-dev / -devel depending on your OS conventions.)

Expat 2 is finally quite stable and with some luck you can rely
on your OS vendor to patch security defects. Once you've installed
the dev[el] package, apr should detect expat without hints.
