( filed as https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=208059 but posting here anyway, as it might cause faulty builds for extras apache modules as well) (someone prob needs to approve the fedora-devel-list CC:, if it doesnt' auto bounce) I was in the process of making a new apache module (mod_auth_radius). A problem I ran into was that despite using %{_libdir}, the module would install in /usr/lib/httpd/modules instead of /usr/lib64/httpd/modules. This is on an FC5 xenu build with xenguest-install.py on a P4 with an x86_64 kernel. I checked what I could have done wrong by testing two random other modules from extras, mod_cband and mod_security. They turned out to suffer from the same problem, they also install in the wrong directory. So I decided to look at a core module, and picked mod_auth_mysql, which turns out to not even build on x86_64, with a failure to link against libmysqlclient, which is indeed a missing Require (which I bugzilla'ed), but after installing both mysqlclient10 and mysqlclient14, it still couldnt't find the proper library. So I picked mod_auth_pgsql. That compiled fine, but I already had it installed from binary. I peeked: # rpm -ql mod_auth_pgsql /etc/httpd/conf.d/auth_pgsql.conf /usr/lib64/httpd/modules/mod_auth_pgsql.so /usr/share/doc/mod_auth_pgsql-2.0.3 /usr/share/doc/mod_auth_pgsql-2.0.3/INSTALL /usr/share/doc/mod_auth_pgsql-2.0.3/README /var/www/manual/mod/mod_auth_pgsql.html Then I checked my freshly build package: # rpm -qlp /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/x86_64/mod_auth_pgsql-2.0.3-2.3.x86_64.rpm /usr/doc/mod_auth_pgsql-2.0.3 /usr/doc/mod_auth_pgsql-2.0.3/INSTALL /usr/doc/mod_auth_pgsql-2.0.3/README /usr/etc/httpd/conf.d/auth_pgsql.conf /usr/lib/httpd/modules/mod_auth_pgsql.so /var/www/manual/mod/mod_auth_pgsql.html This leads me to believe that the current apxs in httpd-devel is subtly broken. Note this is a freshly installed FC5 with updates.
