Okay, here's what I think is happening:
On my server, httpd (version 2.0.55, by the way) was installed via RPM
so everything is in non-standard locations and I'm getting the error
"skipping the build of mod_dav_svn" while configuring svn. According
to the INSTALL file, that would mean configuring with the with-apxs
flag, but I don't have an apxs file/directory.
What am I missing? Where is apxs supposed to be located? Is it
analagous to something else I should be pointing to? Is there another
flag I should be using instead of with-apxs?
Frustration is starting to get the better of me, so any help would be
greatly appreciated. I can't seem to find a single resource that
identifies all of the ./configure flags that I might use...
