Hi,

I started all over but with mod_perl2 as DSO this time. The static
installation of mod_perl-2.0.0-RC4 at the time went ok, but now it failed for
the test t/api/module. So, I took mod_perl-1.99_17 which compiled very well.
libapreq2-2.04_03-dev I also managed to install but Mason is still not as it
should be: 

Checking for Scalar::Util...ok
Checking for File::Spec...ok
Checking for CGI...ok
Checking for Cache::Cache...ok
Checking for Exception::Class...ok
Checking for Test::More...ok
Checking for Params::Validate...ok
Checking for Class::Container...ok
Checking for Apache::Request...ok

*** If you plan to use Mason with Apache::Filter
    you will need to install Apache::Filter 1.021 or newer.
Warning: prerequisite Apache::Filter 1.021 not found. We have 0.01.

Whilst reïnstalling (did that a couple of times already) Apache-Filter-1.022,
it keeps on looking for Apache::Constants which is also already present. 

Just now i tried mod_perl-2.0.0-RC4 again and everything went fine!

It's kind of funny: 
Installing apache-perl (1.3.33-3), libapache-request-perl (1.1-0.1),
libhtml-mason-perl (1:1.26-1) as Debian packages, takes less than one minute
and everything is functional right away.

Cheers,

Bart
