Definetely.

HEAD now has sources that build rrfw_0.1.8-0 (both on sid and woody).
I have not tried the packages yet.

I am concerned about the changes concerning libapreq2. Does that have
something to do with the libapache2-request-perl package already in
Debian? I won't be able to test this as I am still using apache 1.3,
so I won't work on this at all. I need to leave some work to you ;)

Is it really a good idea to edit an obviously generated Makefile.in in
a dpatch? Shouldn't we probably edit the Makefile.am and reautoconf
the package?

Greetings
Marc
