## With 1.5.4, if you had OpenSSL installed under the < 1.1.0 prefix of
## /usr/local/ssl, and were 64-bit (lib64), you might have needed this patch:
# test -d /usr/local/ssl &&
# test $(uname -m) = 'x86_64' &&
#  wget -nc http://englanders.us/pub/linux/patches/apr-util-1.5.4.patch &&
#   patch -p0 < apr-util-1.5.4.patch &&
#    autoreconf -f -i

# To build it with Berkeley DB support, pass --with-dbm and the type of dbm
# to use (see './configure --help' for the list) and --with-berkeley-db
# specifies the path to it.  If you leave off a path, it will look for it
# in standard places.  If you leave off a --with-dbm, but do pass
# --with-berkeley-db, it will try all supported versions, newest first.
#
# So, for Slackware 14.2 with the 'db48' package, you can use this
# (or just --with-berkeley-db and let it figure it out)
# --with-dbm=db48 --with-berkeley-db
# or, if you have 4.8 installed from source it would be like this:
# --with-dbm=db48 --with-berkeley-db=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.8

# If your OpenLDAP is not installed under /usr, or somewhere else covered
# by /etc/ld.so.conf, specify where it is with these (and --with-ldap):
# --with-ldap-include=/whatever/include
# --with-ldap-lib=/whatever/lib

# As of 1.2.11, you no longer have to configure MySQL support in ./dbd/,
# now just pass --with-mysql to configure.  If not under /usr, you
# may need to pass the path to like so: --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql
# If you have a mysql_config in your PATH, it should find it

# As usual, see "./configure --help | less" for other configure options

# Configure the build
# The default prefix is /usr/local/apr (without using --prefix=/else/where

# If you are building in support for anything that uses OpenSSL and
# you have and have OpenSSL installed under the default <= 1.0.2 prefix of
# /usr/local/ssl, make sure APR's configure was run with LDFLAGS pointing
# to /usr/local/ssl/lib or lib64 or building APR-util may fail with a
# "cannot find -lssl" and/or "cannot find -lcrypto" error.
#
# You should be fine if it's installed under /usr or /usr/local
# (i.e. libcrypto and libssl are in /usr/local/lib or lib64) as long as
# you have that in /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig.

# --with-mysql is good enough as long as mysql_config is in your PATH

# Configure for 64-bit with OpenSSL in /usr/local/ssl
