Actually, the ebuild is up-to-date as far as versions go, it is at 2.0.40. |
| 2 |
However, it is not maintained at all according to the standards of Gentoo. |
| 3 |
I am hesitant to do any work on the ebuild (and some related ones like |
| 4 |
mod_php) if all I am going to get is a BUG report set to LATER and not see |
| 5 |
it in the portage tree anytime soon (and then somebody else may override my |
| 6 |
changes anyway). |

In response to layout, I was under the impression that Gentoo was using /opt |
| 9 |
for precompiled packages and and everything else should fall into the /usr |
| 10 |
tree. I kind of like the way FreeBSD does it, so I was considering |
| 11 |
something similar to that, in Gentoo style. Also, I don't think that |
| 12 |
/home/httpd/htdocs is really the ideal location for the site pages, but that |
| 13 |
is my opinion and I will defer to others on this without argument. |
