That's the packager's decision. When you install a package, you accept whatever decisions the packager has made on your behalf. I think this packager's decision to include postgresql support makes sense, given that the apr-util build (which is the relevant bit) doesn't (yet) support loading the pgsql driver dynamically. -- Nick Kew Application Development with Apache - the Apache Modules Book http://www.prenhallprofessional.com/title/0132409674 --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
