--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name        : mod_perl
Product     : Fedora 18
Version     : 2.0.7
Release     : 12.20130221svn1448242.fc18
URL         : http://perl.apache.org/
Summary     : An embedded Perl interpreter for the Apache HTTP Server
Description :
Mod_perl incorporates a Perl interpreter into the Apache web server,
so that the Apache web server can directly execute Perl code.
Mod_perl links the Perl run-time library into the Apache web server and
provides an object-oriented Perl interface for Apache's C language
API.  The end result is a quicker CGI script turnaround process, since
no external Perl interpreter has to be started.

Install mod_perl if you're installing the Apache web server and you'd
like for it to directly incorporate a Perl interpreter.

Update Information:

This fixes mod_perl compatibility with httpd-2.4.

I won't wait for release, because upstream is more or less dead. Currently, mod_perl in F18 does not work well with httpd-2.4, so I've decided to upgrade to svn version where all mod_perl tests pass.
