[Pkg-securepass-devel] Bug#773777: libapache2-mod-authz-securepass: incompatible with Apache 2.4 due to use of ap_requires

[Logan Rosen]

Package: libapache2-mod-authz-securepass
Version: 0~20140715+0git93f271f5-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

As you can see from the build logs [1], there is an implicit declaration of the ap_requires function, which was removed in Apache 2.4 (currently in Debian unstable and testing). [2]

This renders the module unusable with Apache 2.4, AFAICT.

It doesn't appear that changes have been made upstream yet to support Apache 2.4, and this definitely shouldn't be in testing until that happens.

Thanks,
Logan Rosen
