@Justin:

My first few tries were with APXS, but they failed (can’t remember errors). It didn’t blow up so bad that I couldn’t try again, it just didn’t work.

@Mike: Because there had to be at least one unexplained, obscure thing in a Linux related post?

Casey, I’d love to know the answer to Mike’s question as well. Did testing having answered ‘yes’ reveal subtle weirdness? Did things blow up spectacularly? Or does that let you avoid pulling in httpd-devel and all the compiler-related dependencies that that brings in?

Cheers (and add my thanks to the list!),

Justin

Hi Casey,
Can you explain why you choose “no” for APXS?

Thanks,

Many thanks. I agree with Mark. After seeing so many ridiculously complicated explanations of the above simple process I can only say again – thank you for you help and effort.

@Mark:

Thanks, but don’t worry for me. These directions will become incomplete and misleading as soon as the underlying OS changes.

Thanks. Very simple, very clear, very complete directions. Are you sure you are a linux guy? They are going to revoke your group membership privileges if you don’t make these directions either partially incomplete or somewhat arcane.
