All, The upgrade to apache 2.4 can present a real challenge for those relying on mod_php, mod_ssl and vhosts. On 2/27 on Arch-dev, Pierre suggested: "Anyway, I suggest in the end we should post an announcement on the front page." He was right. Having a few moments today to bring a production

For something as fundamental to server operations as apache, Arch should continue to provide 2.2 as the core package while providing 2.4 in testing for an extended period. This sounds very Debianish. I haven't seen the same approach for any other package in Arch Linux. Please correct me if I

Apache 2.2.15 was pushed in 07/2013. This situation hardly qualifies as "lost interest". If you desperately need 2.4.7 and are absolutely sure that it is compatible with 2.2 why not just compile it yourself? We have both Python 2 and Python 3 in official repos. The same could apply to Apache I b
