Well, er, installing apache-perl isn't quite the same as installing apache + libapache-mod-perl; as you point out the former is compiled in while the latter links dynamically. Likewise, apache-ssl and apache + libapache-mod-ssl are not the same in that the SSL stuff is compiled in when you run apache-ssl. The apache issue is further complicated in that apache-ssl and libapache-mod-ssl _are not the same code_ ... they are two means to an end. See http://www.apache-ssl.org/#mod_ssl for an explanation. For most people it somes down to personal preference. Personally, I like to install apache + whatever libapache-mod-* packages I want/need. Others like the compiled in version. -- Nathan Norman - Incanus Networking mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Quando omni flunkus moritati. -- Possum Lodge Motto -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
