[gentoo-dev] net-www/apache-1* masked.

[Luca Longinotti]

Hi all!
As announced in the 30 April 2007 edition of GWN [1], net-www/apache-1*
as well as all packages depending/using it were masked, pending removal
on 12 June 2007.
I fixed all packages, dependencies, etc. I could find to work correctly
after the masking (generally removing Apache 1.X support from them).
If you find any issue still, please open a bug about it, assign it to
apache-bugs@gentoo.org and make it block bug #178189 [2].
If you use or plan on using the apache-module or depend.apache eclasses,
be aware that the need_apache function doesn't anymore export the
apache2 USE flag to IUSE, since now it directly depends on Apache 2.X,
so be sure to declare it in your ebuilds IUSE (I fixed the few cases
where this wasn't already done).
Thanks and happy upgrading to Apache 2.X!
