You’d want the source package that Ubuntu
built their binary .deb from. Apparently the command is:
apt-get source apache2
On RPM-based distros you’d usually
browse to your distro’s mirrors, download the source RPM, ‘install’
it and look at the .spec file. I’m guessing the above step is the
equivalent for .deb packages – anyone more familiar with it want to
comment?

Subject: Re: What is
apache compiled with now?
ls -l
/usr/share/apache2/build/ shows "envvars-std"
Also I don't have 'httpd -l'
I installed apache2 using Synaptic. So I didn't compile it myself. So I guess
to refine my question, how on Ubuntu do I find out what modules are compiled
in?
Here is some more info
The command dpkg -l
apache2* returns
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Installed/Config-f/Unpacked/Failed-cfg/Half-inst/t-aWait/T-pend
|/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)

And if you didn't save your sources, you can find out what is
statically compiled in with 'httpd -l'.
