Gluster users - May 2009 - mod_glusterfs build error on mandriva-2008.1-x86_64

I've been building and running gluster on a mandriva-2008.1-x86_64
system for a while now.  I had encountered a minor problem in the
configure step that was causing the build of the apache mod_glusterfs
to fail.  It doesn't matter much to us since we're not currently
using mod_glusterfs.

I did find a workaround to the problem in the past without delving into
the cause of the problem, and that at least allowed the build to run
without any errors.  However, I forgot to report the problem to the
gluster mailing list until now when I ran into the problem again today
building the gluster-2.0.1 release.  This time I spent a bit more time
finding the exact source of the problem and a proper fix.

On my mandriva-2008.1-x86_64 system:

   httpd -V | head -1
   Server version: Apache/2.2.8 (Mandriva Linux/PREFORK-6.1mdv2008.1)


During configure this output from httpd -V would produce this:

   grep MOD_GLUSTERFS_HTTPD_VERSION config.log
   MOD_GLUSTERFS_HTTPD_VERSION='2.2.86.12008'


Here's the necessary fix to configure.ac:


diff configure.ac.orig configure.ac
262c262
<    MOD_GLUSTERFS_HTTPD_VERSION=`$HTTPD_BIN_DIR/httpd -V | head -1 | awk 
"{print $3}" | sed 's/[[^0-9.]]//g' |        sed
's/\(.*\..*\)\..*/\1/'`
---
>    MOD_GLUSTERFS_HTTPD_VERSION=`$HTTPD_BIN_DIR/httpd -V | head -1 | awk 
'{print $3}' | sed 's/[[^0-9.]]//g' |        sed
's/\(.*\..*\)\..*/\1/'`
281c281
<    MOD_GLUSTERFS_HTTPD_VERSION=`$HTTPD_MANUAL -V | head -1 | awk
"{print $3}"
| sed 's/[[^0-9.]]//g' | sed 's/\(.*\..*\)\..*/\1/'`
---
>    MOD_GLUSTERFS_HTTPD_VERSION=`$HTTPD_MANUAL -V | head -1 | awk
'{print
$3}' | sed 's/[[^0-9.]]//g' | sed 's/\(.*\..*\)\..*/\1/'`
