[gentoo-dev] name of apache package

[gentoo-dev] name of apache package

[Mikael Hallendal]

Hi!

Is there a special reason for the naming of the apache package
'apache-ssl'. This doesn't conform with the rest of the package-tree.
We don't name xchat 'xchat-ssl' just to show that it can be built with
ssl-support.

I think that the apache-package should be renamed to 'apache' and be
controlled by USE-flags whether or not to build with ssl-support.

Regards,
  Mikael Hallendal

I agree.  The name is old and needs fixing.

Looks like the package needs fixing too, it doesn't care about the ssl
USE-flag. I'm adding a todo for the server-team about this.
