Debian – apache 2.4 on debian squeeze via apt

apache-2.4aptdebiandebian-squeeze

Is there a source like dotdeb.org which offers the apache 2.4 packages for Debian squeeze? I'm looking for Apache modules. I want to install the modules from this source and then the actual version of apache via apt?

Best Answer

I don't think there is any repo with apache 2.4 for Squeeze. I have tried to build it with modified dependencies.

Download debian sources:

apt-get source apache2 -t experimental

Modify dependencies in debian/control to older ones - available in Squeeze:

debhelper (>= 8.0.0~), dpkg-dev (>= 1.15.8.12~), libaprutil1-dev (>= 1.3.9))

And build it:

cd apache2-2.4.2/ && dpkg-buildpackage -b

Install with dpkg -i, it will need some more packages.

The apt history is in /var/log/apt/history.log as said in a comment above. That said, this will not list packages that were installed manually, using dpkg or GUIs such as gdebi. To see all the packages that went through dpkg, you can look at /var/log/dpkg.log.

You can do a couple of things for avoiding this. Setting the DEBIAN_FRONTEND variable to noninteractive and using -y flag. For example:

export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
apt-get -yq install [packagename]

If you need to install it via sudo, use:

sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get -yq install [packagename]
