Description of problem: The default mod_security config contains: LoadFile /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2 this is completely bogus. The module DSO should be linked against libxml2 at build time if it is required.
This is really, really, ugly. # ldd /usr/lib/httpd/modules/mod_security2.so linux-gate.so.1 => (0x00110000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x0013f000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00158000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00756000) # nm -D /usr/lib/httpd/modules/mod_security2.so | grep -c 'U xml' 23
Believe it or not, the LoadFile directives are per the upstream's install documentation. :-\ I agree that it's a bad idea though, and I'd like to see the end of it. Let me have a tinker with the package locally, I believe I can get rid of it. Should that work expect to see some updates.
